The 21-year-old defeated the American McCartney Kessler 6-2, 6-1 in the third qualifying round on Saturday and, after three convincing victories, secured her place as the fifth German in the field of 128 participants.
Lys is in the main draw of the US Open for the first time.
Previously, Laura Siegemund (Metzingen) had also prevailed in the qualification. Thanks to their world ranking position, Tatjana Maria (Bal Saulgau), Anna-Lena Friedsam (Neuwied) and Tamara Korpatsch (Hamburg) will also be at the start of the Hard Court Grand Slam.
