Open day 11 takeaways: Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori win mixed doubles Advertisement Read: The Pulse newsletter Hi, Our Names Are: U-S-A? For a long time, the top of the tennis world was rather static.
That era is largely over.
At this years U.S.
Open, upsets have become the norm and the semifinals have been crashed by a surprising crew: a group of Americans largely unfamiliar with this territory.
Since Serena Williams run, only two American women Sloane Stephens (2017) and Coco Gauff (last year) have won on the home court This time, Gauff lost early, but two new faces filled in: Jessica Pegula , who stunned No.
1 seed Iga Swiatek, and Emma Navarro , who beat Gauff in the round of 16 The mens side had been seeing dramatically less success by Americans.
None have made the mens final since 2006, Andy Roddick s last appearance.
He was also the last to win a U.S.
Open (2003).
The drought is real.
Metaphorical crops are dying Enter Frances Tiafoe and Taylor Fritz , two passionate players who have shown flashes of extreme talent.
The 26-year-olds play each other in a semifinal today, with the winner to face top seed Jannik Sinner or No.
25 seed Jack Draper in the final This is the first U.S.
Open with two American men and two American women in the semis.
A new era? Maybe not yet.
But at this tournament, things feel very fresh.
Thats a good thing.
