The 2019 WTA season ended last month with the first edition of the WTA Finals in Shenzhen where the world number one, Ash Barty, triumphed. I watched bits of the WTA Finals but have to admit I found it rather lacklustre and uninspiring this year. Post-US Open, i’ve been busy at work and not feeling…
The 2019 US Open final will be contested between Serena Williams on Bianca Andreescu after both players won their semi-final matches in straight sets. A bit late with this post as i’ve only just caught up with the matches. Selfishly not a fan of the night semi-finals as I cant survive a day at work…
The semi-finals for the 2019 US Open are all set for Thursday night after the quarter-finals from the top half were played out on Wednesday. Belinda Bencic and Bianca Andreescu will joined Serena Williams and Elina Svitolina in the last four. I think it’s an exciting semi-final line-up! Read on for the highlights from day…

There’s also media highlights from the day and polls for fourth round matches on day 8.…
Week one at the 2019 US Open is in the books. It was a day of straight setters but there were some great stories and moments including the final match of the day between Naomi Osaka and Coco Gauff. Here’s hoping for some crackers as we move into the second week in New York. This…
After the madness of day 4, day 5 of the US Open was pretty quiet as the higher ranked player won in seven of the eight matches. It has paved the way though for some potential blockbusters later in the week on this side of the draw. Read on for the highlights from Friday’s action…
Two rounds down and just 32 players remain in the 2019 US Open draw. I’ve been busy the past few days so I have combined the last two days into a speedy round-up.
