Leylah Annie Fernandez will open the second day of play at the US Open on Tuesday as she takes on 22nd-ranked Ekaterina Alexandrova on the Grandstand Court.
With Denis Shapovalov and Bianca Andreescu both pulling out of the tournament, Fernandez and Rebecca Marino are the only Canadians left in singles play.
