China Open LIVE stream: How to watch tennis online and on TV

The China Open is one of the biggest non-majors on the tennis circuit.

While it is a World Tour 500 tournament for the men, for women it is a mandatory premier event.

The prize money for women in this tournament vastly outranks the men, with the WTA having a prize pot of £4.7million.

Garbine Muguruza and Simona Halep are the top seeds for the tournament, while in the men’s draw Rafael Nadal and Alexander Zverev lead the ranks.

There is plenty of interest surrounding Nadal, especially after his epic US Open victory last month.

Here is how you can watch the China Open live on TV and online.
