The 1999 record with four French players from qualifying for the US Open (Cyril Saunier, Julien Boutter, Nicolas Escudé and Stéphane Huet) will not be equaled this year. In 2023, only three have made it out of the qualifying tournament.
Qualified since Friday, Enzo Couacaud (182nd) will be opposed in the first round of the US Open to the Czech Jiri Vesely (431st). Titouan Droguet (172nd), who will also play his first match in a main draw on the ATP main circuit, will face the No. 18 seed, the Italian Lorenzo Musetti. Hugo Gaston (98th) will play another qualifier, the Japanese Sho Shimabukuro (159th).
Among the women, only Elsa Jacquemot (181st) made the cut. She will thus play her first US Open and will be opposed to the Ukrainian Lesia Tsurenko (45th).
