The Madrid Open airs on the Tennis Channel in the US. For those without cable, you can access it by subscribing to a live TV package like Sling TV or Hulu + Live TV. For Sling TV, you'll need to get a Sling base plan for $40 a month, before adding on the Sling Sports Extra option for $11 a month to access the Tennis Channel. In total, you'll be spending $51 a month to watch.
For just the essentials without any extra fluff, Sling TV is the streaming service you're looking for. It's more customizable than other plans, with three options you can choose from, so you pay for only what you need. New members get their first month for $20 off.
For Hulu + Live TV, you'll need to get a base plan, which starts at $76.99 a month, as well as the Sports Add-on for an additional $9.99 a month to access the Tennis Channel. In total, you'll be spending $86.98 a month. The Hulu + Live TV bundle also comes with regular Hulu, ESPN+, and Disney+.
Hulu + Live TV includes over 90 channels, along with Hulu's on-demand library and access to Disney Plus and ESPN Plus. Adding live TV drives up the price significantly, but it's a rolling one-month contract that you're free to cancel at any time. As live TV services go, though, this is one of the best.
