- The second round of the 2025 US Open qualifying tournament continued on Thursday, August 21, after rain delayed play on Wednesday.
- Heavy rains on Wednesday washed out an entire day, causing the tournament to resume second round qualifiers instead of the final round on Thursday.
- Lower-Ranked players, including Dutch and Swiss competitors, donned apparel from smaller, local brands like The Indian Maharadja and Fourteen Company in their matches.
- Swiss player Marc-Andrea Hüsler, ranked 228th, wore Fourteen apparel while a player sported a New York City shirt designed by Mexican startup Lega, described as "a complete new run."
- The presence of these small brands highlights opportunities in tennis sponsorship beyond giants like Nike and Adidas, suggesting a growing market for emerging apparel companies.
