Day 5 delivered at the U.S. Open. No bigger highlight than Serena playing for over three hours and going three sets with Ajla Tomljanovic before falling to the Australian and presumably ending one of, if not the greatest tennis career. Other matches of note from Friday included Ons Jabeur rallying from a set down to defeat American Shelby Rogers and Alison Riske regrouping after dropping the second set to advance over Xiyu Wang.
The Men’s Draw saw Casper Ruud outlast Tommy Paul in five sets and Andy Murray fall in four sets to Matteo Berrettini. Nick Kyrgios defeated JJ Wolf in straight sets.
Day 6 features Jenson Brooksby (+285) taking the court against Carlos Alcaraz (-400). Rafael Nadal (-2500) is back on the court and a heavy favorite against Richard Gasquest (+925) and Andrey Rublev (-195) takes on Denis Shapovalov (+150). Top-seeded Iga Swiatek (-1250) is in action against Lauren Davis (+650), Jessica Pegula (-800) meets Yue Yuan (+480) for the first time, and Victoria Azarenka (-210) look to continue her run when she meets Petra Martic (+160).
