At the Arthur Ashe Stadium, Serena Williams will begin her farewell US Open campaign on Monday night. Grand Slam winners Emma Raducanu and Jelena Ostapenko are among the top entries for the Korea Open, while Naomi Osaka, Paula Badosa, and Aryna Sabalenka are the top players for the Pan Pacific Open. Few players were still competing in events outside of New York, where the season's last Grand Slam would be held, but the majority had already arrived. On Saturday in Granby, Daria Kasatkina and Daria Saville will compete for the crown. The Winston-Salem Open's male finalists are Adrian Mannarino and Laslo Djere.
Serena Williams has scheduled a matchup at the US Open for Monday night.
23-time Serena Williams, the reigning Grand Slam champion, will play on Monday night at the US Open. At 7 o'clock local time, she will begin the event at Arthur Ashe Stadium. The American will face Danka Kovinic in the opening round and, if successful, might go on to play World No. 2 Anett Kontaveit. If things don't work out, though, this may potentially be Williams' illustrious career's last game. After the competition, the former World No. 1 is expected to retire.
The top two competitors for the Korea Open are Emma Raducanu and Jelena Ostapenko.
The 2022 Korea Open, which runs from September 19–25, will feature Grand Slam champions Emma Raducanu and Jelena Ostapenko as its main draws. The Latvian previously held the championship in this competition in 2017. Tatjana Maria, who advanced to the semifinals of the 2022 Wimbledon, Ekaterina Alexandrova, the 28th-ranked player in the world, doubles pro Kristina Mladenovic, and past Wimbledon runner-up Eugenie Bouchard are some of the other notable players in the mix.
The field in Tokyo is led by Naomi Osaka, Aryna Sabalenka, and Paula Badosa.
The 2022 Pan Pacific Open field is led by top-10 players Aryna Sabalenka, Paula Badosa, and Daria Kasatkina, as well as Grand Slam champions Naomi Osaka and Garbine Muguruza. The event returns to the tour for the first time since 2019 and is scheduled to take place from September 19–25. Osaka is currently leading the competition. Among the other notable competitors are former World No. 1 Karolina Pliskova, 2020 Australian Open winner Sofia Kenin, and World No. 17 Caroline Garica.
In Granby, Daria Saville and Daria Kasatkina will compete for the championship.
Daria Kasatkina won the Silicon Valley Classic to kick off the fall hardcourt season. She did, however, lose in the opening round of the WTA 1000 competitions in Cincinnati and Canada. She decided to participate in the WTA 250 in Granby with a last-minute wildcard, and she is glad she did. The Russian is competing in the final and will face Daria Saville. Saville has gradually risen through the ranks. She started the season outside of the top 400 and, as a consequence of making the final, will undoubtedly be in the top 60 next week.
Laslo Djere and Adrian Mannarino will compete for the Winston-Salem Open championship.
After overcoming Botic van de Zandschulp at the Winston-Salem Open,
Adrian Mannarino advanced to his 11th career final. Given that he has
only won one championship, his performance in the finals is very dismal.
In this championship round, he will compete against Laslo Djere. In
order to defeat Marc-Andrea Husler and go to the final, Djere had to put
in a lot of effort. His first hardcourt final and fourth overall. The
pair will compete in the final on Saturday with hopes of winning their
first championship in a very long time..
