Indoor tennis in Europe, hard-court events in Asia

Three ATP indoor tournaments in Europe and two WTA hard-court events in Asia, with quarter-finals and rounds of sixteen across the day.

On Wednesday, October 21, 2026 the model makes A. Li a 63% favourite over Z. Sönmez in round of 16 at Osaka (10:35 pm ET). The market prices A. Li at 93%.

Five tour-level tournaments share the day: three ATP indoor events in Europe — Brussels, Almaty and Lyon — and two WTA hard-court events in Asia, Ningbo and Osaka. Ningbo sits at the highest tier of the five and has the deepest field still in.

The Asian events run from the European morning into the small hours, while the indoor events in Europe play through the afternoon and evening.

Coverage is straightforward. The ATP events are on Tennis Channel in the United States, Sky Sports Tennis in the UK and Ireland, and beIN SPORTS in Australia, with Tennis TV carrying main-court matches only at that level and outside courts left out. The WTA events follow the same pattern in the United States and the UK; in Canada most of the day is streaming, with TSN+ carrying a large share and TSN taking selected WTA matches.
