Learner Tien and Amanda Anisimova finished atop the standings for the 2024 US Open Wild Card Challenge and each clinched singles main draw wild cards into the 2024 US Open.

Anisimova, 22, reached her first WTA 1000 singles final in Toronto, which she plays tonight against fellow American Jessica Pegula. Ranked as high as No. 21 in singles as an 18-year-old, Anisimova took an eight-month break from the tour in 2023 for mental health reasons, and now will return to the Top 50.

Tien, 18, has now earned wild cards into three consecutive US Opens, after winning back-to-back USTA Boys’ 18s national singles championships in 2022-23. He won 28 consecutive pro singles matches at ITF and Challenger Tour events from May through July.

The final standings are below:

MEN

1. Learner Tien — 109

2. Nishesh Basavareddy — 74

3. Mitchell Krueger — 53

2. Alycia Parks — 133

The men’s point totals consist of the cumulative ATP singles ranking points earned from each player’s best four results over six weeks. The Men’s Challenge counted outdoor and indoor hard-court events at the 25-level and above around the world.

The women’s point totals consist of the cumulative WTA singles ranking points earned from each player’s best three results over four weeks. The Women’s Challenge counted outdoor and indoor hard-court events at the 35-level and above around the world.

Both main draw and qualifying points earned count toward each player’s Challenge total.

Americans who otherwise earn direct entry into the US Open are not eligible. Should the player with the highest number of Challenge points earn direct entry into the US Open, the wild card will go to the next eligible American in the Challenge points standings.
