This one didn't come down to a foot fault, a referee's call or anything else that could've made Serena Williams mad.
Nope, just a feel-good Saturday night for a player who has had her share of injuries and turmoil over the past few years. www.naijapaymentsonline.com
In what was supposed to be her toughest test yet at the U.S. Open, Williams dominated top-seeded Caroline Wozniacki 6-2, 6-4 in the semifinals to move a win away from her 14th Grand Slam title.
"For me, it's amazing," Williams said. "I've come a long way, a really long way."
Williams, who missed the better part of a year with injuries and illness, was back in the semifinals at Flushing for the first time since 2009 when, also on a Saturday night in Arthur Ashe Stadium, she got called for a foot fault against Kim Clijsters, then went on a tirade against the referee that cost her match point.
An ugly moment she'd love to forget — sort of the same way Wozniacki would like to forget almost everything that happened on a worst-case-scenario night for her in the world's biggest tennis stadium.
