American Serena Williams, six-time World woman tennis champion has won quarter-finals against Bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova (4-6 6-3 6-2) in 2020 US Open held in Flushing Meadows, New York. During the match, as a potential opponent in the finals, she was going to face either former world number one Victoria Azarenka or the 16th seeded Belgian Elise Mertens. By the end of the day, it was Victoria Azarenka. If she wins the final, Serena will equal Margaret Court’s all-time record of 24 grand slam singles titles. It will also be a wonderful gift, as she has been seeking the record for the last 4 years..
Serana William, 38, appeared determined to avoid another defeat and to reach her fifth Grand Slam final in three years. She did very well all around and exploited the weeknesses of Tsvetana Pironkova in going beyond the break points or effectively returning the ball in service games. Williams said she could not afford another sluggish start and kept momentum as the match went on, which ended with 20 aces.
After the semi-final win, Serena Williams praised the Bulgarian for her determination and playing with such stamina, after becoming a mum. Serena Williams said:
"It shows me how tough mums are. Whenever you can birth a baby, honestly you can do anything. We saw that today, she played unbelievable. I could barely win a match when I came back, so she's incredible. Her baby has to be younger than mine - you play a match, go home and you're still changing diapers, it's like a double life."
She also started looking forward to the semi-final and the final wins, that will allow her to claim a record-tying 24th Grand Slam singles title.
“It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish, right?", Serena Willimans said, "In the beginning, I was a little fatigued, for whatever reason,” Williams said. “Obviously, I can’t do that if I want to keep winning, so I need to figure that out.”
Go Serena!!!
