Rain wiped out women's quarter-final matches at the US Open on Wednesday night, completing a washout on the day after six men's matches had already been cancelled.
Four men's last-16 contests and two quarter-finals were cancelled on a rainy day in Flushing Meadows, but organizers had hoped to salvage the day by playing all four women's quarters simultaneously on Wednesday night.
Serena Williams made it as far as Arthur Ashe Stadium to warm-up for her match with Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova before misty rain again intervened and play was called off at 2015 local time.
"While it is only misting currently at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, the forecast predicts worsening conditions," the US Tennis Association said in a statement.
"Due to this forecast the USTA is cancelling the Wednesday, September 7 night session."
