Newswire From a news agency Ongoing story
  • Paula Badosa returned to competition for the first time since July and led Daria Kasatkina 6-1, 5-4, 40-40 when rain stopped play in New York.
  • Badosa had already missed two match points before the weather interruption and will resume the match on Wednesday.
  • Spain’s Jessica Bouzas advanced, while fellow Spaniard Kaitlin Quevedo lost to Elise Mertens.

Paula Badosa was just two points from victory in her return to competition when rain interrupted her match against Australia’s Daria Kasatkina in New York. Badosa led 6-1, 5-4, 40-40, and the match was postponed until Wednesday.

The Spaniard had already held two match points but could not convert them before the rain arrived. She had not played since the quarterfinals in Hamburg, while her absence from hard-court competition stretched back to March in Miami. Badosa, who was born in New York, had also been waiting to return to Flushing Meadows after withdrawing in 2025 because of back problems.

Jessica Bouzas, ranked 105th in the world, advanced with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Czech player Darija Vidmanova, ranked fifth. Bouzas will face Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina, the second seed, who defeated American Thea Frodin, ranked 585th.

Another Spaniard, Kaitlin Quevedo, lost 6-4, 6-4 to Belgium’s Elise Mertens, the 20th seed.
