No. 1 ranked Aryna Sabalenka is hoping to join historical territory if she can pull off her third consecutive US Open title when it begins this weekend.
The first round of the women's 2026 US Open begins this Sunday, August 30th, where several American contenders will look to give the hometown crowd something to cheer about throughout the tournament.
Sabalenka defeated Americans Jessica Pegula (2024) and Amanda Anisimova (2025) in her ongoing reign, though she lost to Coco Gauff in the 2023 final.
The No. 4 ranked Gauff is looking for her second US Open title, and momentum is on her side after she knocked off No. 3 ranked Pegula in the Cincinnati Open final on Sunday.
Of course, Iga Swiatek and Elena Rybakina are two current staples at the top of the WTA rankings and cannot be overlooked in this tournament despite it featuring a terrific batch of Americans along with the undisputed top-ranked Sabalenka.
Outside of Gauff and Pegula, other Americans consist of Anisimova, Madison Keys, Iva Jovic, and more. Here's a look at the top-ten favorites to take home the 2026 Women's US Open title, with odds provided by bet365:
