Andreescu, Zheng, Kenin, Liutova Headline US Open Qualifying Entries
Former US Open: Former US Open champion Bianca Andreescu and Olympic gold medallist Zheng Qinwen are among the stars named to feature in the entry list for this year's qualifying competition for the year's last Grand Slam, which begins on August 24 in Flushing Meadows.
While the stars will be hoping to turn back the clock and go for the title, the 16-year-old Kristina Liutova will make her Grand Slam qualifying debut after becoming the first 2010-born player to win a WTA tournament last week in Memphis on her tour-level debut.
Andreescu, 26, made history in 2019 by becoming the first player to win the US Open on her main-draw debut. Having struggled with an array of injuries since, the Canadian will be playing the qualifying rounds for the first time since 2018, when she lost her opener to Olga Danilovic.
