How to watch Fils vs Tiafoe: Live Streams & TV Channels for Cincinnati Open final 2026 | Daily Reports Online
Watch Arthur Fils vs Frances Tiafoe live streams as both players look to head to the US Open on the back of a morale-boosting victory and win their first ATP Masters 1000 title in the process.
Fils has enjoyed an impressive run in Ohio, overcoming a number of top players to reach the biggest final of his career. The 22-year-old defeated ninth seed Jiri Lehecka and fifth seed Alex de Minaur before delivering a statement victory over seventh seed Flavio Cobolli in the semi-finals.
The French ace needed just 68 minutes to sweep past the Italian and is just the second player born in 2004 or later to reach a Masters 1000 final. Fils will now enter the final full of confidence, having beaten Tiafoe in their only previous meeting in Miami last year.
While the American has a losing record against Fils, he will have the home crowd behind him. The 17th seed has looked hugely impressive in Cincinnati, particularly in his comprehensive straight-set win over the in-form Felix Auger-Aliassime in the last 16.
Having secured a comfortable 7-5, 6-3 win over fellow American Brandon Nakashima in the semi-finals, he’ll now play in the Cincinnati Open final for the second time in three years. However, he’ll hope for a more positive result after losing to Jannik Sinner in the 2024 showpiece.
