Trip,
I don't see that category as a qualifier in the GR WTTs. I think that is for OTTs. It is last year's medallist is in final x. Otherwise, WTT qualifiers are as below. Based on what I see here, I think he will have to be top 7 at the US Open. I am probably wrong, but I don't see any world champion in the past as a qualification here.
