Top-seeded Iga Swiatek will return to the WTA Tour after her 4th round defeat to Olympics Gold medallist Belinda Bencic at the 2021 US Open. The Pole is yet to go past the quarter-finals since her title at the 2021 Italian Open but she has been consistent which has helped her move to a career-high rank of World No. 6.

Yulia Putintseva comes into the 2nd round after a win in the first round, unlike Swiatek who had a bye in the 1st round. She was up against Shuai Zhang in the 1st round and won in a tight 3-setter to advance ahead. She comes from a semi-final run at the 2021 Portoroz Open.
