U.S. Open Live Updates: Leylah Fernandez vs. Emma Raducanu

[PamfromTx]

In a battle of two unseeded teenagers for the women’s singles title, Raducanu won the first set, 6-4. I'm rooting for Leylah.

A Canadian takeover, in New York and in tennis.​

Of course..lol....we were running out of Patience... 44 years since we last had a win at the Grand Slam finals for a female .... ..

Huuge Kudos and congrats to her , up until a few weeks ago only hardened Tennis fans had heard of her tbh... so it's a fantastic feat for someone just 18 years old ....

What a great final with both Ladies playing fantastic tennis, it's good to know that for the foreseeable future they will be on our screens. Well done to both of them.

Came across her Wimbledon but I have done some research and she has been winning tournaments since she was in single figures.

yes but the vast majority of the public still hadn't heard of her until this tournament

They both did so well, in that entire series of matches, to get into that Finals!

It will be interesting , to see how both of these young women do in their next, and future tournaments.
I wonder when that might be. Does anyone know, or have a guess?

No clue, but I am sure they will be competitors in the future.
