–
Rebecca Marino’s impressive run through the US Open qualifying means there are three women in the singles main draw.
Add to that three in the men’s draw, and that’s a nice number.
As well, Gabriela Dabrowski and new partner Luisa Stefani have a nice head of steam going into the women’s doubles, after a great U.S. hard-court summer.
