Player profile
Braden Shick built his foundation across four seasons at NC State. The Greensboro-raised right-hander earned 2025 ITA doubles All-America honors with Fons Van Sambeek, received All-ACC recognition in both singles and doubles, and qualified for the NCAA Singles Championship through an ITA East Sectional semifinal. He also clinched the team victory that sent NC State to the 2025 Sweet 16, its first appearance there since 2007. Shick then moved rapidly through professional events, using ITF and Challenger opportunities to reach the low 200s. His profile is that of a recent college graduate converting team pressure and academic discipline into an individual tour career.

US Open story
Shick has no previous US Open men's singles main-draw appearance. His 2026 first qualifying match is against France's Clement Tabur, and three victories are required before a debut in the 128-player field. This is a major jump from the NCAA and early Challenger settings that shaped most of Shick's recent schedule. Tabur has spent longer in professional events and brings more experience with European clay and hard-court draws. For Shick, the immediate milestone is narrower than qualification itself: establish a first New York result while showing that his fast ranking rise can hold against an opponent seasoned beyond college tennis.
What to watch
Shick's 2025 doubles All-America season matters even in a singles qualifier because it developed his first-volley decisions and comfort closing toward the net. Tabur can make that transition difficult by keeping returns low and forcing Shick to volley from below net height. The American's preferred clay surface suggests patience in longer construction, but New York rewards a clear first strike when the serve opens space. Fans should watch how Shick balances those identities: use his college-tested consistency to stay in neutral exchanges, then recognize the shorter ball quickly enough to prevent Tabur's professional experience from controlling the tempo.
