Laura Robson will be seeded at a Grand Slam tournament for the first time when the US Open starts on Monday.

The 19-year-old Briton, who reached the fourth round at Flushing Meadows 12 months ago, was named as the No 31 seed, which means that she is guaranteed to avoid any seeded opponents in the first two rounds.
