Four Chinese tennis players achieved a perfect four-and-zero record during the second round of the United States Open qualifying tournament in New York on August 27, 2026. Zheng Qinwen, Yuan Yue, Bu Yunchaokete, and Wong Chak-lam each secured straight-set victories to advance to the final qualifying round. Zheng defeated Clara Burel six-one, seven-five, overcoming a resilient second-set challenge. Thirteenth seed Yuan Yue comfortably handled Arianne Hartono six-two, six-two. Meanwhile, Bu Yunchaokete and Wong Chak-lam posted identical six-three, six-three wins against Yannick Hanfmann and Goncalo Oliveira respectively. All four competitors stand one victory away from earning berths in the main tournament draw, with final qualifying matches scheduled for August 28. Subsequent tournament play experienced weather disruptions, as Zheng's match against Pridankina was temporarily suspended due to rain while Zheng led by a set and trailed early in the second set.
