Fifth-seeded Russian Daniil Medvedev will take on second-seeded Spaniard Rafael Nadal in the US Open Men’s singles final at Arthur Ashe Stadium, New York after midnight tonight.
This will be the 27th Grand Slam final of Nadal’s career, and the first for Medvevev.
Earlier, Canadian teenager Bianca Andreescu stunned Serena Williams 6-3, 7-5 in the US Open women’s singles final to claim a first Grand Slam title and deny the American a 24th major. 37-year-old Williams did not cope with the 19-year-old’s quality in the gripping match. Andreescu is the first Canadian to win a tennis major and the first teenager to win a Grand Slam since Maria Sharapova claimed the 2006 title. However, with the defeat, Serena Williams has lost her fourth grand slam in a row.
