As many as 10 British players were included in the qualifying entry list for the US Open, but which of them have been knocked out and who can still reach the main draw?
You can see how all of our British hopefuls get on by watching the US Open qualifying live on Sky Sports+ from 4pm Monday through Thursday.
Then tune into the final Grand Slam of the year, the US Open, from August 26 to September 9, with live coverage on Sky Sports Tennis and any match available on Sky Sports+.
Francesca Jones and Lily Miyazaki are in first-round women’s qualifying action, with Jones facing Spain’s Rebeka Masarova from around 9.15pm after Miyazaki takes on Slovenia’s Dalila Jakupović from 4pm.
Miyazaki is seeded 31st as she looks to qualify for the second year running – on her US Open debut last year, she beat Margarita Betova to reach the second round.
Also on Tuesday, Billy Harris, Jan Choinski and Oliver Crawford begin their qualifying campaigns in the men’s tournament.
Harris is seeded seventh in qualifying after a summer that saw him reach a first career ATP quarter-final at Queen’s Club, before going one better to reach a first ATP semi-final at Eastbourne a week later.
He plays Juan Manuel Cerundolo of Argentina from 5.15pm, with Choinski also meeting an Argentine opponent in Pedro Cachin (9.05pm) and Crawford facing American J.J. Wolf from 7.55pm.
Heather Watson is one of four in the women’s qualifying draw and the most experienced of the bunch at 32 years old, having reached a career-high ranking of 38 back in 2015.
She has never made it past the first round in 10 prior visits to Flushing Meadows and has failed to qualify in the past two years, but is through to the second round of qualifying after an emphatic 6-1 6-1 win over last year’s junior Wimbledon champion Clervie Ngounoue.
Sonay Kartal, who reached the third round of Wimbledon earlier this summer – which included a win over 29th seed Sorana Cirstea – also impressed as she swept past Guiomar Maristany in straight sets, 6-3 6-3.
In the men’s qualifying, Liam Broady suffered a disappointing first-round exit, losing in straight sets 7-5 7-6 (9-7) to Otto Virtanen.
It means that there will not be a second all-British tie in qualifying after Paul Jubb beat countryman Jacob Fearnley 6-1 7-6 (7-2) to set up a meeting with Virtanen next.
Both Jubb and Fearnley impressed during the grass-court season this summer, with the latter winning his first ATP Challenger title at the Nottingham Open before taking a set off Novak Djokovic when reaching the second round of Wimbledon.
Jubb, meanwhile, earned a first top-20 win when defeating Ben Shelton at the Mallorca Championships on his way to a first ATP semi-final appearance. And it is he whose US Open dreams remain alive going into the second round of qualifying.
