Caroline Wozniacki has been named as top seed for the US Open in the absence of injured world number one Serena Williams.
The Dane has never won a grand slam tournament, but reached the final at Flushing Meadows last year, where she lost to Kim Clijsters, this year's second seed.
Venus Williams is the only seeded American in third, while the other previous winners in the draw, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Maria Sharapova, are 11th and 14th respectively.
