Zheng Qinwen's loss in the Athens Open quarter-finals has put her US Open main draw qualification at risk, as her current ranking of No 122 is below the required top 104.
Zheng Qinwen faces an uphill battle to reach the main draw of the US Open after losing in the quarter-finals of the Athens Open on Friday.
The Chinese tennis star threw away solid leads in both sets before losing 6-4, 6-4 to Barbora Krejcikova of the Czech Republic.
Zheng now faces the real possibility that she will have to go through the qualifiers for the final grand slam of the season due to her ranking not meeting the threshold for the main draw.
With the next women’s professional rankings released on Monday – the same day that the US Open cuts off the main entry draw list – Zheng’s live ranking, currently No 122, indicates it is likely the former world No 4 will miss out.
Players need to rank in or around the top 104 to meet the direct qualification threshold for the US Open main draw.
A final chance for the Paris Olympic champion would be a wildcard for the main draw in New York; otherwise, she will need to play in a grand slam qualifier for the first time since 2022, when she made her grand slam debut in Melbourne at the Australian Open.
