  1. Swiatek in good form

    Much has been made of Iga Swiatek's indifferent form over the last couple of years but she comes into this second-round match at the US Open with some good momentum.

    Swiatek has won 11 of her 12 matches since the grass court season ended, securing her first title of the season at the Canadian Open last month.

    Her only defeat in that period was to American Jessica Pegula in the semi-finals of the Cincinnati Open just under two weeks ago.

  2. Swiatek and Podoroska up shortly

    Much of our early focus will be on six-time Grand Slam winner Iga Swiatek's second-round match against Nadia Podoroska.

    Polish eighth seed Swiatek, who was champion at Flushing Meadows here in 2022, gets under way against world number 449 Podoroska just after 16:00 BST on Grandstand.

    The pair have only met once previously, with Swiatek winning in straight sets at the French Open in 2020.

  3. What Brits are in action today?

    Only two Britons remain in singles competition at the US Open and both are in action on day five.

    Harriet Dart is the second match on Court 11, taking on Czech 25th seed Marie Bouzkova for a place in the third round.

    Fran Jones is also in second-round action and will play American 14th seed Iva Jovic later today. That match is fourth on Stadium 17.
