ORLANDO, Fla., July 29, 2025 (USTA Press Release)

Caty McNally‘s singles title at the USTA Pro Circuit W100 event in Evansville, Ind., was enough to put her atop the first women’s standings in the US Open Wild Card Challenge. McNally has a 40-point lead over second-place Venus Williams, who notched her first singles victory in two years at the Mubadala Citi DC Open last week.

Former Georgia Tech All-American Andres Martin now leads the men’s standings after reaching the final at the USTA Pro Circuit ATP Challenger 100 in Bloomfield Hills, Mich.

The full standings with approximately two weeks to go:

Women’s Standings:

(Player’s current ranking in parentheses)

1. Caty McNally (116) – 100
2. Venus Williams (643) – 60
3. Amelia Honer (722) – 35
4. Robin Anderson (364) – 23
5. Haley Giavara (381) – 14

Men’s Standings:

(Player’s current ranking in parentheses)

1. Andres Martin (275) – 61
2. Emilio Nava (114) – 50
T3. Eliot Spizzirri (124) – 44
T3. Zachary Svajda (148) – 44
5. Govind Nanda (344) – 38

The men’s wild card will go to the American with the highest cumulative total of ATP singles ranking points earned from their best four results over six weeks. The Men’s Challenge counts outdoor and indoor hard-court events at the M25-level and above around the world.

The women’s wild card will go to the American with the highest cumulative total of WTA singles ranking points earned from their best two results over three weeks. The Women’s Challenge counts outdoor and indoor hard-court events at the W35-level and above around the world.

For both the men and the women, results from the first two rounds of the Cincinnati Open will be included if those rounds are completed by the end of the day on Monday, August 11. If all second round matches are not completed by that deadline, then only first-round results will be considered.

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, including those who can enter with a protected ranking. 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. In the event of a tie, the player with the best ATP or best WTA singles ranking on Monday, August 11, will earn the wild card.
