How to watch the US Open Men's Final from anywhere

If you're away from the location where your preferred streaming service is available, you can still access your favorite content (including free options) with a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are handy tech tools that help people temporarily alter their device's virtual location. They're popular among those looking to upgrade their cybersecurity or keep up with their usual websites and apps while traveling abroad.

Proton VPN is one of the best VPNs we've tested. It's user-friendly (even for beginners) and offers a substantial selection of global servers. Plus, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee if you find it's not helping you.

How to use a VPN

• Sign up for a VPN if you don't already have one.
• Install it on the device you're using to watch.
• Turn it on and set it to the location of your streaming service.
• Navigate to your streaming service and create an account if necessary.
• If you have any issues, disable your device's and the VPN's ad blockers, try using incognito tabs, connect to a fresh server in the VPN app, or even try a different protocol in the settings.
• Enjoy the tennis match.
