US Open 2026 Women’s Bracket — Predict the Draw

Build and share your own US Open 2026 women’s bracket. The LiveTennis Slam Predictor is the play-along US Open bracket challenge — pick every match from the first round to the final, or lock the calls you trust and let the simulation fill the rest. Dial the upsets, crown your US Open champion and share the whole bracket in one link. It is a prediction game, not our editorial coverage: for the official draw, the seedings and our expert calls, use the links further down.

How the US Open bracket challenge works

Click a player to lock in your winner of any US Open 2026 match. Drag the Upsets slider — from “Chalk” through “Realistic” to “Carnage” — and hit Simulate full draw to auto-fill the rest from the current seedings, or build the bracket in stages: simulate only as far as the Round of 16, quarter-finals or semi-finals, then make the big calls yourself. Lock the picks you believe in and re-simulate everything else for a fresh run — your locks stay put. Crown your US Open champion, then copy the share link and the whole bracket travels with it.

For the full explainer on locking, staged simulation, the Upsets dial and how the engine decides winners, head to the LiveTennis Slam Predictor page.

The 2026 women’s draw

The full 128-player main draw is loaded, exactly as it was made on 27 August, so the bracket always starts from the original draw rather than the live scoreboard. Play is now under way, and 27th seed Barbora Krejčíková was the first seed to fall. Catch up in our Day 2 report. Aryna Sabalenka is the top seed and two-time defending champion, with Elena Rybakina seeded second. Cincinnati runner-up Jessica Pegula is third and champion Coco Gauff fourth, while Iga Świątek is down at the eighth seed after her Cincinnati title defence ended in the semi-finals. Sara Bejlek is seeded 28th on her breakthrough summer.

Frequently asked questions

How does the Simulate button decide winners?

It weighs each player’s ranking and then applies the Upsets slider — higher settings give lower-ranked players a bigger chance of springing a surprise, just like a real Grand Slam fortnight. Simulate only fills the matches you have not locked, so you can pin your strong calls and re-roll the rest, or simulate just one stage or a single quarter at a time.

Is this the real US Open draw?

Yes. The full 128-player women’s singles main draw is loaded as it was made on 27 August 2026, including all 32 seeds and the qualifiers.

Can I share my bracket?

Yes. Once you have crowned a champion, copy the share link and your entire bracket travels with it — anyone who opens the link sees your exact predictions.
