No direct US Open entry for 2-time finalist Azarenka
Print Edition
Two-time US Open runner-up Victoria Azarenka is ranked just below the cutoff for direct entry into the year’s last Grand Slam tournament.
Azarenka, a former No. 1 and twice the champion at the Australian Open, is No. 108 this week, seven spots outside of an automatic spot in the main draw. The US Tennis Association announced on Wednesday that defending champion and top-ranked Rafael Nadal is one of six past male singles champions in the US Open field, along with Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Juan Martin del Potro and Marin Cilic. The women’s winners with direct entry based on this week’s rankings are six-time champion Serena Williams, two-time champion Venus Williams, defending champion Sloane Stephens, Russian Maria Sharapova and Samantha Stosur of Australia.
