Serena Williams will face Anett Kontaveit in 2022 US Open 2R
Serena Williams booked her place in the second round of the US Open, where she will be up against World No. 2 Anett Kontaveit. The American beat Danka Kovinic 6-3, 6-3 while the Estonian thrashed Jaqueline Cristan 6-3, 6-0 in their respective opening-round clashes.
It will be the first meeting between the two players and while Kontaveit has not been in the best of form lately, beating her will be a daunting task for Serena, given her recent performances.
However, considering the former World No. 1’s experience, mentality and the fact that she will have the crowd on her side, she has a chance of winning. The winner of the match will face either Evgeniya Rodina or Ajla Tomljanovic in the third round of the US Open.
