FLUSHING MEADOWS, NY – Not quite the same level of accomplishment and history on the women’s side as there is for the men on Thursday.
But still some top quality matches.
Notably: Elina Svitolina v Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (which when you think about it is kind of old school, relatively speaking). That one turned out to be as good as expected.
Also Kasatkina v Kenin, with the American trying, still, to get back close to her career-best form. That one also turned out to have plenty of drama.
