Pareja is ranked 960 among the pros and her highest ranking as a junior has been No. 104. She will face Australian Kimberly Birrell in the final round on Thursday. A win would make her the first player born in 2009 to compete in a Grand Slam women’s singles main draw.
Pareja is one of six Americans through to the final round of qualifying at the US Open. She is joined by third seed Hailey Baptiste, 11th seed Ann Li, Varvara Lepchenko, Usue Maitane Anaconada and Elizabeth Mandlik.
Comeback-bound Ana Konjuh and 19-year-old Alexandra Eala were among those who also moved into the final round of qualifying on Wednesday.
