The fact that Serena Williams is in the Finals after what happened last year is Amazing. The fact that it’s her 4th final since giving birth is OUTSTANDING.

Terrific performance. Just made a very, very good player look ordinary. Looked fitter and stronger than I have seen her for a long, long time and the groundstrokes at times were just insane.

US Open victories in singles – women

1. 101 Chris Evert
2. 101 Serena Williams
3. 89 Martina Navratilova
4. 79 Venus Williams
5. 73 Steffi Graf

MOST GRAND SLAM FINALS — Women’s Singles

1. Evert, 34
2. S. Williams, 33
3. Navratilova, 32
4. Graf, 31

Federer, the Men’s leader, has 31.

Serena is eyeing a 24th major on Saturday, which would tie the Queen with Margaret Court for tennis’ all-time lead, and the 37-year-old is hoping to get over the finish line after losing three grand slam finals in a row — which had never previously happened in her storied three-decade career.
