NEW YORK (Reuters) – World number one Iga Swiatek beat Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur 6-2 7-6(5) in the US Open final on Saturday to claim her maiden trophy at Flushing Meadows and third Grand Slam title.
Poland’s Swiatek hugged Jabeur after prevailing in the tight second set tiebreak, having sealed the win when the fifth seed’s forehand sailed long.
It was Swiatek’s 10th straight victory in a final and the first major title on a hard court for the two-time French Open champion.
