Main article: 2019 US Open (tennis)
Bianca Andreescu defeated Serena Williams in the final, 6–3, 7–5 to win the women's singles tennis title at the 2019 US Open.[1] It was her first major title, and she became the first Canadian, as well as the first player born in the 2000s, to win a major singles title.[2] In addition, she was the youngest person since Svetlana Kuznetsova in 2004 to win a major singles title and the first woman to win the US Open on her main draw debut. With the win, Andreescu entered the top 5 in rankings for the first time.[2] [3]
Naomi Osaka was the defending champion, but lost to Belinda Bencic in the fourth round.
By making the final, Williams set a new record for the longest gap between a player's first and most recent major final appearances, her first being twenty years prior at the 1999 US Open . She also equaled the record for most match wins at the US Open (101) held by Chris Evert . Williams was attempting to equal Margaret Court 's all-time record of 24 major singles titles, and she was also attempting to win an Open Era record seventh US Open title.[4]
Despite losing in the fourth round, Ashleigh Barty regained the WTA No. 1 singles ranking at the end of the tournament from Osaka.[5] Besides Barty and Osaka, Karolína Plíšková and Simona Halep were also in contention for the top ranking.[5]
