Sabalenka’s New York redemption
Aryna Sabalenka earned US Open redemption after she won the women’s title in New York.
The Belarussian suffered one of her darkest days when she lost last year’s final to Coco Gauff from a set up.
She threatened a repeat of that wobble with some nervy moments, but this was her time, beating Jessica Pegula 7-5 7-5.

Mika’s magical moment
Mika Stojsavljevic ensured there was British success at the US Open as she became the junior champion. The 15-year-old Londoner beat Wakana Sonobe 6-4 6-4 to become the first Briton to win the girls’ tournament in New York since Heather Watson in 2009.
Stojsavljevic followed up her impressive semi-final display, where she ousted Iva Jovic – the 16-year-old American who made it to the second round of the main women’s draw – with another assured performance.
