US Open 2001

This was Bedanova's best Open in two appearances. After making the field as a qualifier last year, she fell in the first round to Nadia Petrova.

Hingis and Bedanova were playing each other for the first time.

In the last 10 years at the US Open, the women's draw has seen 16 unseeded quarterfinalists. Bedanova was this year's unseeded representative.
