Following a ranking drop to 147th globally due to a recurring left arm injury, former British No 1 Jack Draper will likely need to qualify for the US Open. Draper, who has only participated in a few tournaments since stepping away from the tour a year ago, is set to return to action at the DC Open in Washington. Meanwhile, Arthur Fery, the new British men's No 1, will make his Flushing Meadows debut after a remarkable Wimbledon run.
Emma Raducanu, the 2021 US Open champion, and other British hopefuls, including Cam Norrie and Katie Boulter, will also compete in the main draw. The tournament, featuring defending champions like Aryna Sabalenka, will begin on August 30 and be broadcast live on Sky Sports.
