Aryna Sabalenka to face Camila Osorio in US Open first round

The draw for the US Open 2026 has been finalized, setting up a high-profile first-round match between world number one Aryna Sabalenka and Colombia's top player, Camila Osorio. Sabalenka, the defending champion and tournament top seed, enters the competition seeking a third consecutive US Open title.

For Osorio, the match marks her debut on the iconic Arthur Ashe Stadium. The Colombian player, who previously won the US Open junior women's title in 2019, faces a significant challenge as she attempts to advance against the WTA leader.

Other notable storylines in the women's draw include Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova, who will begin her campaign against American Katie Volynets. Noskova, seeded sixth, is positioned in the same half of the bracket as Sabalenka and third seed Jessica Pegula.
