Play in Round 2 or Qualify at the US Open was canceled on Wednesday on the outer dishes of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on Wednesday due to persistent rain, and will be resumed on Thursday with top seeding Fran Jones from Great -Britain.
After a storm that delayed action beyond the planned start of 11 am, Play started shortly before the rain returned to return to players at the court.
Only 14 of the 64 women’s and gentlemen 2nd round qualification movements could start on Wednesday before the decision to cancel the game was taken at around 4 p.m. local time (9 p.m. BST).
The British No. 5 Jodie Burrage was one of the small group of qualifications that managed to go to court earlier in the day.
Burrage, which reached the 2nd round of the main table in 2023, was 5-3 behind her Dutch opponent Arantxa Rus when they were enforced after 41 minutes of play.
Colleague Britten Jones and Harriet Dart did not even come to court.
However, the weather had no influence on the climax of the new mixed doubles, with the semi -final and definitively protected by the roof at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
The British Heren No. 1 Jack Draper and his American partner Jessica Pegula belonged to the 4 teams that were aimed at the title of 7 pm local time (Midnight BST, on Thursday).
