The Charleston Open faced significant disruptions due to rain, leading to the cancellation of the night session, which included matches between Jabeur-Collins and Fernandez-Stephens, and two of the three doubles matches, all cancelled for today. The rain delay pushed back play to no earlier than 1 pm ET, later updated to no play before 4 pm ET, with a revised order of play announced. As a result, Thursday's schedule will be packed, with players, including Leylah Fernandez and Sloane Stephens, set to play twice in one day. Stephens emerged victorious over Fernandez in the second round and will face the winner of the Collins-Jabeur match later in the day.
