Amanda Anisimova and Learner Tien clinched US Open main draw wild cards this week, as both finished atop the 2024 US Open Wild Card Challenge standings.
Tien, 18, has now earned wild cards into three consecutive US Opens. Tien won 28 consecutive pro singles matches at ITF and Challenger Tour events from May through July. Anisimova, 22, reached the final of the National Bank Open in Toronto. Below are the standings:
Top American juniors Matthew Forbes and Iva Jovic won the USTA Boys’ and Girls’ 18s National Championships yesterday, earning each a main draw wild card into the US Open.
Forbes, from North Carolina, defeated Jack Kennedy in Sunday’s final at Kalamazoo. He is slated to play at Michigan State next year. Jovic, who won the girls doubles title at this year’s Australian Open, defeated Valerie Glozman for the title in San Diego.
Glozman and Kennedy will receive qualifying wild cards at the Open.
More wild card announcements from the US Open are expected soon.
