The U.S. Tennis Association releases the direct entry lists for the US Open, the final Grand Slam tournament of the season, which begins next month in Flushing Meadows. Aryna Sabalenka, a two-time defending champion, and Jannik Sinner, a Wimbledon winner, are listed at the top of their respective fields. The entry lists are compiled using the July 20 rankings from the WTA and ATP Tours. The cutoff for direct acceptance is No. 102 in the women’s draw and No. 101 in the men’s draw. Sabalenka leads the women’s rankings and is set to compete for a third consecutive US Open title, a feat not achieved by a woman since Serena Williams won three straight US Open titles from 2012 to 2014. For the men’s event, Sinner’s ranking positions him among the leading entrants as the tournament approaches.
