USTA Announces Draws for American Collegiate Player Wildcard Playoffs

Jun 15, 2026

The USTA has released the official draws for the 2026 American Collegiate Player Wildcard Playoffs, which will take place June 16–18 at the Collegiate Center on the USTA National Campus in Orlando.

The event will award six coveted wild card entries into the 2026 US Open, including four singles spots and two doubles spots, to top American collegiate players.

Winners of the men’s and women’s singles playoffs will earn direct entry into the US Open main draw, while the runners-up will receive wild cards into US Open qualifying. The winning teams in the men’s and women’s doubles playoffs will earn US Open main draw doubles wild cards.

Seeding was determined using a combination of professional rankings, year-end ITA rankings and ITF World Tennis Number ratings. The top two seeds in each draw were placed automatically, while the third and fourth seeds were assigned by random draw.

Competition begins Tuesday, June 16, with all matches scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m. ET each evening. Admission is free for spectators, and Cracked Racquets will provide live streaming coverage throughout the event.
