Leylah Fernandez may have lost the all-teenage US Open final to Emma Raducanu but fans were given a potential glimpse at a match which could be a feature of the future of Women's tennis.
Fernandez produced a brilliant run from start to finish at Flushing Meadows to continue her breakout and after losing to the British qualifier was understandably upset.
Giving a tearful interview, she thanked her family before sending a message of support to those affected by the 9/11 terror attacks on the 20th anniversary.
“I hope I can be as strong and resilient as New York has been the past 20 years," she said.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
