Serena's chance to equal Court's record, after making 10th US Open final | smhsport
Turning 38 this month, Williams will play either 19-year-old Canadian sensation Bianca Andreescu or Swiss ace Belinda Bencic in Saturday's title match.
The American succumbed to Naomi Osaka in last year’s drama-charged US Open decider, in which Williams received a game penalty deep that precipitated an extraordinary meltdown in the second set, and lost the 2018 and 2019 Wimbledon finals to Angelique Kerber and Simon Halep respectively.There was never a hint of the six-times champion ever losing focus against Svitolina.Williams jumped out to a 3-0 lead before taking the opening set in 41 minutes.
Williams’ 101st victory at Flushing Meadows also matched fellow American Chris Evert’s record for most US Open match wins.
