Breaking: Serena Williams' bid to capture a record-tying 24th Grand Slam tournament singles title ends in a loss to Bianca Andreescu in the U.S. Open final.
For the second year in a row at the U.S. Open and the fourth time since she returned to competition following the birth of her daughter, Serena Williams fell short of tying Margaret Court’s record of 24 career Grand Slam tournament singles titles.
Williams fell behind 5-1 in the second set and faced a championship point but found the strength to make one last frenzied rush and won the next four games. Andreescu, showing signs of strain for the first time in the match, committed a number of errors before she held for 6-5. Williams saved a championship point with an ace but Andreescu hit a forehand winner to put the match away.
Andreescu will receive a check for $3.8 million. Williams will earn $1.9 million. Williams’ supporters included the Duchess of Sussex — formerly Meghan Markle of Southern California.
