FLUSHING MEADOWS, NY – Will the Cana-CanaKiwi duo of Gabriela Dabrowski and Erin Routliffe get through the Roland Garros champions and make it to the US Open final?

Tricky match. But after what the two went through in the quarters against Leylah Fernandez and Taylor Townsend, anything will feel like a piece of cake in comparison. Turned out to be even more nerve-wracking. But they made it through.

In the other semi, former champions Siegemund and Zvonareva took on a surprise new duo – unseeded Luisa Stefani and Jennifer Brady. And they had a lot less trouble.

Oh, and some men’s singles semifinal action as well. A few guys you might be familiar with. The second match, in particular, was gripping.

And the men’s doubles final, in which Ram and Salisbury won their THIRD consecutive US Open title.

Good tennis.
