Iga Świątek draws Rybakina, Osaka and Keys in loaded US Open quarter

The No. 8 seed opens against Wang Xiyu and is placed in a difficult quarter containing Elena Rybakina, Naomi Osaka, Madison Keys and Belinda Bencic, with a projected Rybakina quarterfinal. Her 24-6 US Open record and one title offer encouragement, but the draw magnifies the consequences of her ranking drop and raises questions about Rybakina’s fitness after Cincinnati.
