The Swiss maestro has won 20 Grand Slam events in his illustrious career

Iga Swiatek believes "the sky is the limit" after she crowned her rise to the pinnacle of women's tennis with a third Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open.

The 21-year-old Polish world number one claimed her second Grand Slam title of 2022 at Flushing Meadows, defeating Tunisia's Ons Jabeur 6-2, 7-6 (7/5).

The two young stars of world tennis offered an incredible pleasure to tennis fans, and after five hours and 15 minutes of play, finalizing with a score of 6-3, 6-7(7), 6-7(0), 7-5, 6-3. The five-hour, 15-minute epic is the latest finish in US Open history.

After three and a half hours of great fighting, the American Frances Tiafoe shocks Rafael Nadal in the Round of 16 to move into the US Open quarterfinals for the first time, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3.
Tiafoe surely played the match of his life, as in New York in the previous two seasons, the American was stopped at this stage of the competition, but now he finally took a step higher.

In an electric four-set match, Nick Kyrgios proved too much for 2021 US Open champion and No. 1 seed Daniil Medvedev, advancing to his first US Open quarterfinals, 7-6(11), 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.
It was the Australian's fourth win in five career encounters with Medvedev, and his second straight after a 6-7(2), 6-4, 6-2 second-round match last month in Montreal.

Rafael Nadal defeated close friend Richard Gasquet for the 18th time to reach the U.S. Open fourth round as world number one Iga Swiatek made the last 16 for a second successive year.

Four-time champion Nadal took his record over Gasquet to a perfect 18-0 with a 6-0, 6-1, 7-5 victory to stay on course for a 23rd Grand Slam title.

Williams’ list of achievements goes far beyond her 23 Grand Slam singles titles

Serbia now has an identical score of 3/3 with Belgium (defeated by Greece) in the third position and placement at Mundobasket has never been more realistic for Svetislav Pei's team.
If it could have been done with less drama - it could have been. Serbia started violently from the start and showed that it is a better team.

Lleyton Hewitt, a two-time Grand Slam champion and former world number one, was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame on July 16, a ceremony delayed from 2021 by COVID-19.
