US Open women’s singles: how the top players are shaping up for Flushing Meadows

The article discusses the top women's singles players and their performances leading up to the US Open. Coco Gauff, the home favorite, is mentioned, while the focus is on Aryna Sabalenka, who has had a strong season but has yet to win a Grand Slam title. Sabalenka has been the world No. 1 for 52 weeks, surpassing her compatriot Victoria Azarenka's 51 weeks. Despite her impressive record, Sabalenka has failed to win a Grand Slam this year, finishing as a runner-up in Melbourne and Paris and reaching the semi-finals at Wimbledon. However, her powerful game and devastating serve, especially on hard courts, make her a top contender at the upcoming US Open, where she is the defending champion.
