NEW YORK: In a match featuring a new generation of attractive than women’s tennis, youth Emma Raducanu and Leylah Fernandez faced each other with our finals which was not possible on Saturday.
English Raducanu is 18 years old, the first qualifier to reach the grand slam final, will try to become the first English woman to win the grand slam title since Virginia Wade in Wimbledon in 1977.
He has not dropped a set.
Go to the Final at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Fernandez, a 19-year-old Canadian left employee rank 73 in the world, has defeated defending champions Naomi Osaka, Aryna Sabalenka and fifth seed Elina Svitolina in its part to the final.
“This will be a difficult match for sure.
He plays big tennis,” Raducanu said.
“But I think I also played very good tennis.
I’m happy to go there.” This is the first time a teenager has met in the grand slam final since 17 years Serena Williams beat Martina Hingis, 18, in 1999 the US Open.
Someone will go with his first Grand Slam trophy in the same court where Williams, a slam winner 23 times will be 40 years old, taking the first 22 years ago.
“There is no limit to my potential, for what I can do,” said Fernandez.
“Every day we just have to keep working hard, we have to keep doing it.
Nothing is impossible.
I’m just happy now everything goes well.” If he wins, Raducanu ranks 150 will be the first British woman who won the US Open since Wade in 1968.
He is the youngest round finalist since the 17-year-old Maria Sharapova won at Wimbledon in 2004.
“I am not really necessarily how my game will be, “said Raducanu.
“My tennis level has surprised me by the way I managed to step against some of the best players in the world.” I know I have a kind of level inside myself similar to these girls, but I don’t do it.
Don’t know if I can defend it above one or two sets.
To be able to play the best players in the world and beat them, I honestly don’t believe.
“Fernandez said:” I believe in my game, but also helped me open my eyes that I could win on this player.
“I’m just happy to have this experience and see where my tennis level is.” The unexpected charge of Raducanu for the final has created high joy in the British media, the hunger of tennis success since Andy Murray’s career has decreased.
“The greatness of waiting for Raducanu in a dispute that marks a bright and exciting generation,” is the main headline on Saturday.
Both Fernandez and Raducanu have created a true fantasy to compete with Disney’s storyline.
“One word truly stuck to me is ‘magical’ because it’s not just walking I’m very good but also the way I play now,” said Fernandez.
“I just had fun.
I tried to produce something to enjoy the crowd.
I’m glad that whatever I did in court, fans like it and I also love him.” We will say it’s magical.
“The couple first played each other in an event under 12 years.” Since then we both come far in our match and as people, “said Raducanu.” I’m sure it will be very good.
Different when we last met each other.
But we both played good tennis so would be a good match.
“Raducanu and Fernandez have found success at the early stages of their careers, but Sabalenka warns after Fernandez beat him that there is a difficult road in front, as a mental health struggle that has realized Osaka has shown.” The question is when you will begin to understand what happened And where you are, how well you can handle all these expectations and this level, all these pressures, “said Sabalenka.
