Men's Qualifying for the US Open: Cazaux Seeded No. 1, Atmane Draws World No. 151
The draw for the US Open qualifying was held this Sunday.
Fifteen French players will be aiming to reach the main draw of the last Grand Slam of the season.
Arthur Cazaux, a semi-finalist in Kitzbuhel and a finalist in Gstaad, was unable to enter the cut in time.
As a result, he finds himself as the top seed in these qualifiers, with his first opponent being Mark Lajal, ranked 150th in the world. The two players faced each other at the beginning of August in the first round of qualifying in Cincinnati, with the Frenchman winning in three sets (4-6, 6-1, 6-2).
The other French player to be closely watched is none other than Terence Atmane. A semi-finalist in Ohio and eliminated yesterday by Jannik Sinner, Atmane will start against Jan Choinski, ranked 151st in the world. If he manages to reach the third round, he could face Jesper De Jong, the No. 2 seed in this draw.
Among the other French players present, the first round matchups are as follows: Chidekh-Struff, Mayot-Monday, Van Assche-Lajovic, Hemery-Cerundolo, Bouquier-Piros, Jacquet-Draxl, Droguet-Kachmazov, Pavlovic-Riedi, Gueymard Wayenburg-Pacheco Mendez, Herbert-Rocha, Grenier-Jasika, Tabur-Landaluce, Blanchet-Gojo.
