Operating Par For "Her" Course, Serena Williams Into 2019 U.S. Open Final After Seriously Knocking Out Elina Svitolina

American Serena Williams into 2019 U.S. Open to vie for 24th Grand Slam title. |
What can you say??... There's nothing new here. American Serena Williams holds 23 Grand Slam titles, she just earned her 100th match victory at this event, and to top all of that, she's now a wife and a mother. #ThisMama The elements of the journey that she is on are only satisfied when she achieves her best in all aspects.
On Day 10 of the 2019 U.S. Open, in the semi-final 6-3, 6-1 defeat of Ukrainian Elina Svitolina, Serena made her efforts look so common. Elina Svitolina certainly made an attempt to overcome the strategies coming across that net, but her efforts were to no avail.
Watching Serena play in this year's Open you can practically see a return to the mental calm, focus and determination that had previously been frustrated by injuries and losses. Tonight's win over Svitolina did one thing, open another door to a place where Serena enjoys excellence - a grand slam final.
"I don't think about it, I just come out here and, you know, do what I can."
"I couldn't have done it without this crowd, you guys are... literally. Been with me for twenty years and I'm still here, so."
"Yeah, you know, I ahh, this is the biggest stadium for tennis period, in the whole planet, so... I, I think of it that way. And if you think about it that way, it's such an honor for me and my opponent to be out here and play in front of these crowds. They come to watch us, and like, it's amazing. And so, I really enjoy it. I enjoy the opportunity to be out here, and you know, just to do my best."
