French tennis star Gaël Monfils will face the up-and-coming American, Learner Tien, in the second round of the US Open. Tien, 20, is nearly half of Monfils age (39), and his young legs will keep the older Monfils on the move throughout the match.
Tien is also the 14th ranked player at the 2026 US Open on his home soil. Tien won his first round match against Nuno Borges in straight sets, which marked his first win at the Grand Slam in his fifth attempt. Monfils' best finish at the US Open came in 2026 when he lost to Novak Djokovic in the semifinals.
Tien has won the only meeting between the two tennis stars when they met in the round of 64 at the ATP Masters 1000 Canada earlier this year.
The US Open second round match between Monfils and Tien will broadcast live on ESPN.
Fans can also stream the match on the ESPN App, Fubo, and YouTube TV.
