The United States Open’s five-year, $600 million renovation of the U.S.T.A. Billie Jean King National Tennis Center is complete, so there are no new stadiums to debut or roofs to unveil at this year’s tournament. But the Open has expanded its programming for Fan Week, which began Monday and is free to the public. (Those Fuku fried chicken sandwiches and Honey Deuces, though, you’ll have to pay for.)
How to get there: Take the 7 subway line or the Long Island Rail Road to Mets-Willets Point.
Monday-Friday, 11 a.m.
An Extra Day of Qualifying
The qualifying tournament started Monday, a day earlier than in years past, and runs through Friday, with 128 men and 128 women competing for 16 spots in each main draw.
