Ons Jabeur vs Caroline Garcia
Ons Jabeur has entered her maiden US Open final as she defeated Caroline 6-1, 6-3 in the semifinals on Thursday. With the victory, Jabeur has ended Garcia’s 13-match unbeaten streak. Jabeur will now face either World No.1 Iga Swiatek or sixth seed Aryna Sabalenka in the final on Saturday. Though Jabeur was a higher-ranked woman, Garcia was a player who did not drop a single set in the tournament and entered the contest with a great form. The match was expected to be a closely contested one. However what unraveled at the Arthur Ashe Stadium was a bit of a surprise as Garcia was nowhere near her best on the important clash in her career.

The world No. 1 is through to her third major FINAL of 2022 following the Australian Open and her second title run at Roland Garros.
Now the attack-minded baseliner from Warsaw is in her first US Open final. Swiatek won 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 over No. 6 seed Arnya Sabalenka on Thursday night in Arthur Ashe Stadium.
It marked Swiatek’s fourth win over Sabalenka in 2022 and raised her WTA-best win total to 54 on the year. She will face Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur in Saturday’s final.
“I was really happy that I was just able to play in such a solid way,” said Swiatek, the first Polish woman to reach the US Open final. “I had to keep my focus and overcome these obstacles throughout the tournament. I just continued to do that today.”
