Margaret Court’s record will have to wait, again(GRA:Awww,is NYT unhappy?Too bad).
In her latest Grand Slam setback, Serena Williams was defeated, 6-3, 7-5, in the women’s final of the United States Open on Saturday by Bianca Andreescu, a 19-year-old Canadian who has shown no fear against her elders during her breakthrough season.
Andreescu’s victory made her the first Canadian to win a Grand Slam singles title. She won it in her first U.S. Open — she lost in the first round of qualifying the last two years — and it was a sign of how far she has come in a hurry that her victory over Williams was no great surprise to those who follow professional tennis.
Andreescu is 8-0 against top 10 players this year and has not lost a completed match since March 1. She missed a long stretch of tournament play because of a rotator cuff tear in her shoulder but has dominated draws when healthy.
---GRA:A fine day when Serena gets whupped(as Ali used to say).
