The US Open is the final Grand Slam of the year and takes place at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. The 2021 US Open saw Russia's Daniil Medvedev and Great Britain's Emma Raducanu claim the men's and women's singles titles. It was both players' first major title, with 18-year-old Raducanu becoming the first-ever qualifier to achieve the feat. The 2022 US Open main draw is scheduled to go ahead between August 30 - September 11.

The last 4 matches of Fernandez against the top seeds prior to her fairytale finals are all worthy of extended highlights 😍
Fernandez can say she's beaten top 10 seeds, and she had real battles!. Emma can't say she had any real battles like this, and hasn't played any of the top 10 seeds! Interesting times.
@@gamingtonight1526 Well, she's only frigging 19, so she's not going anywhere anytime soon (barring unforeseen changes), so there should be more encounters...
@@gamingtonight1526 Emma can say she's US Open champion. Leylah can only say she had Steve Nash in her box.
@@MrGenexxx and the love of The Big Apple
@@gamingtonight1526 Fernandes lost 2-6 2-6 to Sakkari this year in Melbourne and lost twice to Shelby Rogers in recent history. "Real battles"
thank you so much *US Open Tennis Championships* for these EXTENDED highlights, i can't have enough of leylah fernandez, what a never-give-up player, and what a beautiful girl too !
Even though Emma won the championship but Leylah demonstrated she was a fighter more than Emma was. Leylah seldom gave up running after the seemingly unretrievable shots. I love both Emma and Leylah. For a change, two genuine ladies are winning in tennis, not those unnatural muscle-women.
@@benthekeeshond545I am happy with natural muscle.hehe
Laylah is amazing. Looking forward to seeing her again soon.🙏❤
Laylah ba.... leylah
Leylah proved this tournament that she is not the person you want to get into a tie break with.
Yep...so strong mentally....already at this young age...
She doesnt seem as friendly as Emma
Emma Raducanu made sure she didn’t 😂
She’ll be the Queen of tiebreaks by the time her career is over.
@@thornbottle it's the finalsm what do you expect??!!😀
You can see Sabalenka is a very powerful tennis player. It really shows how much talent and composure Leylah has to have taken her down. As Leylah grows stronger in adulthood, she'll be even more of a dangerous player!
That is true if she doesn't lose her quickness and agility. Sharapova, after winning her Wimbledon debut, grew a few inches taller and she also became more powerful. But I think she lost some of her lateral movement and agility. That got to be the main reason why she didn't do well against Serena after her Wimbledon victory.
Leylah gonna do nothing...
That lefty forehand down the line is LETHAL.
I’m still coming back to re-watch this!!
You are a phenomenal Player,I can't wait to see you compete again.
No joke, they threw the kitchen sink at her, and she just worked her way through it...
Leylah may lack size but she has some pop on her shots great touch and great hands. It's a pleasure to watch her play.
Fantastic Giant Slayer ! she defeated Seed 2, 3 and 5 She cleared the way for Emma to be US open Champion.
Who was seed 1 ?
@@shermanpeabody6102 barty
she is too busy Courting she suppose spending more time at tennis court- -ing ;)@Cendrillon Daniela
She defeated Seed 2,3 and 5 but couldn't take a set from a 'qualifier' ?? BTW, EMMA defeated the girls who defeated the 1and 2 Seeds (BARTY and SWIATEK) !!
After re-watching Emma and Leylah played power tennis in these extended highlights, I don't understand why some players like Sabalenka and Serena have to scream and grunt so loud so much. Now it just feels unpleasant in comparison. Just an opinion.
Same as Federer compared with Nadal or Djokovic
You're absolutely right. They give the same effort but with almost zero noise. The screaming is just pretentious bs.
@@xiaoyang4571 The big 3 are legends of this sport. Those two WTA players produce much lower quality.
These young girls are what we expect for WTA future. Strong, smart and quiet.
Absolutely agree. Loved Emma and Leylah playing together, the sound of tennis played well was a delight,, ban the grunt and the grunters { apart from Arnya , she is gorgeous LOL }
Fernandez is a breath of fresh air to the women's game. All the shots and all the tennis brain with guile and deft touch to add to the punch that she packs on groundstrokes. Looking forward to much more from this little leftie.
She’s done nothing since
@@davd1986 So many girls breaking through and much leveling out.
No she’s overrated, and the quality in women’s tennis has progressively gotten worse over the years.
@@davd1986 Your rating is according to your record in tournaments. You cannot get overrated. If you don't like womens tennis, don't watch it. If you don't swallow any hype, you have no problems. If you continually compare current players to the past.......then you live in the past.
What’s Fernandez’s record this year? Your ego is through the roof. Might wanna simmer down just a tad.
Fernandez could be the Nadal of women's tennis! She could indeed model her game on Rafa's game by perfecting her run around forehand!
She doesn't play like Nadal at all other than being left handed. She plays like a left handed Andre Agassi or Marcelo Rios who was also left handed.
I think she is much similar to Davydenko of ATP.
Her straight arm forehand is similar to Nadals forehand. It is not a bent arm WTA forehand. She needs to work on her backhand and serve and then she could win slams. Nice that she does not scream on court.
@@Raidersscm she has the game base to do a Nadal. Nadal's run-around forehand is a killer because one cannot tell where it's going. Nadal DOES NOT beat himself. He RETURNS every ball with major spin every time whether it's a topspin or a slice. If Fernandez can do some of that, she too will be hard to beat.
Just love to watch Leylah play every single match ;) Lol
Great win by Leyla. She was able to shut up screaming Sabalenka. Thank you!
I wish they could tape Sabalenka's mouth shut during all her matches! Very annoying yelling during almost every point.
Oh yessss Sir!!! So satisfying!
Leylah Fernandez is so talented.
The moment fernandez smile, my day was complete.
a super tough match.. after the previous super tough matches!
She is in much better stead than Emma, who had an easy ride. I expect to see Leylah winning titles before Emma does. (And I am an Emma fan!)
Laylah's US Open is like 4 Epic Finals in One Tournament :)
True! she almost got to Indian wells too😊
Leylah, go go go! Keep going, i believe there would be many more finals for you to play.
After so many years, Sabalenka should learn by now, brute strength and power doesnt always win you the match. Remember Su Wei?
I love Su Wei--but she was never close to being the second-ranked singles player in the world. Sabalenka's power is what has gotton her there. Leylah had to play a fantastic match to beat her.
@@charlesfaure1189 yes exactly , her power has taken her to where she is and she aint going any further unless she learns both the Yin and the Yang. Tennis is as much a physical sport as it is a mental and strategy sport. Cheers
Except Su Wei has never done near as well as Aryna.
@@diamond852 Su Wei is a Doubles specialist and she is right up there. This is not about taking sides. For Su Wei, she needs to improve on power. For Sabalenka its the opposite. Yin & Yang, my friend.
More Leylah extended highlights
The grunter like Sabalenka really needs to be shut down. Love you, Leylah Fernandez! Go get your Grand Slams next year
Leylah and Emma are the future of women's tennis.
Neither Leylah or Emma scream on the court and that is nice also.
And Coco
2023 olvidadas 😂
Just like any other sport, being mentally tough is needed to win. Leyla was mentally stronger in this match. Sebalenka was bothered in a lot of things just like what she said on her interview:
These kids are so evolved.. they dont just play tennis at young age but become world champions.
What this match doesn't show is that Sabalenka double faulted twice in a row at 4-5 in the third to give Leylah triple match point. She had all the momentum in the third set after breaking back but the pressure got to her.
She is choke artist ...completely thrown away the match
@@ReluctantSpirit she did the same in the Wimbledon semi
Why does she succumb to pressure? Poor Saba 😭😤😤😒😒😒😩
The Best LEYLAH FERNANDEZ!!! Mabuhay Pilipinas...
Congratulations Fernandez excellent match
Aryna..it will come soon, you are amazing player! ❤️
Emma may have won the final but Leylah is just too charming and loveable ❤️
Just as Emma...
She was lucky to win many close matches. Lets see in AO.
@@talesara74 Emma woulnt last her wins if she were against tough players as Fernandez did.
Leylah is so cute. I wish she could win coming and more grandslams. But i cant lie that Emma has less weakness.Hopefully one day Leylah can beat Emma .
Intelligence wise, Layla is way under underdeveloped! Check and compare their post match interviews!
Leyla Fernandez is fantastic in all angles.. incredible performance
Even defeated an Olympian Bronze medalist, way to go Leyla. Can't wait to see u play again.
EMMA defeated an Olympic Gold medallist (BENCIC) !!
I was rooting for Emma, but watching leylah in the finals , i was so impressed with leylah game and i wanted leylah to win the finals. She is the STEPH CURRY of Women's tennis
Sakkari vs Andreescu extended highlights please
That was a Battle Royal for sure. Power vs power.
Yes! Just asked for the same. They can surely find lots of highlights from a 3.5 hour match!
Thanks for this. Andreescu-Sakkari extended highlights please. That match was epic.
leylah has enhanced the ontherise ground strokes..so does emma! i welcome this future rivalry sooo entertaining
逆の逆をつくクレバーさ、チャーミングで、マナーも良くてテニスの人気を高めてくれます。
I don't know how Leylah survived those brutal serves, but she did for long enough until Sabalenka beat herself in the last game.
Incredible performance by Leylah 👏❤️
Anyone know where can I watch the full match for free? I just wanna see it once again. Also shame they didn't include when Sabalenka slammed her racquet, it was glorious
If you could please post full matches of Lehlah Fernandez of US Open 2021 it would be nice for all Leylah fans
Successful people don't become that way overnight. what most people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pary that anyone who read this will be successful in life
You are right to be a successful person in life require him or her of hard work and time
The thing about been successful is working toward it and not going the other way round
Talking about been successful. I know I am blessed if not I wouldn't have met someone is as spectacular as Mrs Isabella
she helped me recovered all I've lost trading by myself
Mrs Isabella is legit and her method works like magic I keep earning every single week with her new strategy
I can keep watching this forever!😅
bravo leylah continue comme ca tu gagneras beaucoup de trophees
Amazing match! Great win for Leylah!
Congrats layla. Equador pride
can't get enough of leylah's games, when is her next tour? btw, i love the commentators and their reactions
Indian Wells in California next month (usually this tournament comes before Miami, but got moved to October this year).
@@SweetShimotekutafuto thanks dear, so excited to watch fernandez again...be always rooting for her
such a high quality game from both players!
Poor Sabalenka having to always ask the crowd to cheer for her 🤣 Got outplayed on the day. Get her next time. Leylah was playing like a house on fire the whole tournament. I hope she sticks around. Her matches are so entertaining.
I think Emma and Sabalenka have very similar game, power and height. I would like to see their matchup. I hoped Laylah played like this against Emma
Thier games are not similar at all. Raducanu has a higher tennis IQ with the way she constructs the points whereas Saba has the power.
@@gmann8659 I think Emma and Svitolina have very similar game, power and height. I would like to see their matchup. I hoped Laylah played like this against Emma
Not at all. Sabalenka vs Emma is like Chapman vs Greinke.
Leylah is classy on the court
I watch Aryna Sabalenka, Super, super , super powerful. She is so increadible tennis player
Yet, gets her a.. kicked by a teenager.
@@oneraksakal both keeps an unexperienced, because they are younger. I wanted there was Aryna Sabalenka. (Dot)
Luar biasa Leyla...Gbu.
I wanna watch Saba vs Emma in the future
Love these gurls.. long way to go and more great matches from these young ladies, for sure..They’re both 19 yrs old now and we don’t know what the future have prepared for them. We’ll see who will come on top with multiple GS. Hope to see them together playing double 😊😊
That was a great win by Leylah . With all the top seeds out I thought this time Sabalenka would triumph and win the final .
I love it when a player who gives ridiculous shrieks every time she hits the ball gets beaten.
Yeah, me too.
Emocionante
Just realized Raducanu and Sabalenka's dress looks almost the same.
They are lol
Same sponsor, probably
I just realised it's the same. 😂
They both wear Nike. Simo, Bencic, Kvitova, and Svitolina were wearing the yellow/blue version of the same red/blue dress. Osaka wears Nike too, but had a different outfit style.
Never give up never surrender attitude !!!
Leyla and Emma both are stunning 🤩
First novak now laiya fernandez, Egarly waiting for their upcoming matches
so sad, the decibels after sabalanka winning a point is very underwhelming…
Sabalenka is an absolute beast on the court
Great match from Fernandez!
The young talent proves that she can win without annoying screaming.
Sabalenka really has the potential to be such a force on the WTA tour if only she could stay consistent by reducing the errors. it's not necessary to hit the skin off the ball on every shot. Reduce the margins on your shots, introduce a little top spin maybe, anything to ensure you aren't giving points away.
Yes that and the screaming seems to be an intimidation factor that she is trying to employ. Her game is too high risk to go all the way through a tournament without losing IMO.
@@bcornel5923 agreed 7 matches with brute force and no technique won’t go the distance why do you think she has a hard time against Barty bc she’s patient and precise no add some offensive tendencies to you and u can beat her
Fernandez 真是個19歲年青漂亮的女戰士，今年美網連續四場比賽每場都都打3局才獲勝 且每一場都有一局tie-break! 太厲害了！雖然決賽屈居亞軍輸給另一個驚奇（18歲 ㄧ樣年輕漂亮女戰士 連十場都2:0獲勝）但未來Fernandez我們絕對會常看到她的！
This was like a David and Goliath type of match except the giant named Leylah won.
It looked liked Leylah was going to lose until she won! :)
Even had Magic Johnson pulling for her. He called her the “Giant Killer” after this match.
I was really hoping to see Leylah go toe to toe with Iga. While Iga is dominating and playing amazing. Leylah is diminshing away and having to play ITF tournaments and qualifiers.
I can’t stand Sabalenka’s grunt and attitude! At least congratulate your opponent before you start packing your bag! What a sore loser! Have some respect regardless of the outcome!
The future is emerging......Just begin!
Fernández is like a Nadal woman.
Roger & Rafa is to Emma & Leylah. I hope Emma & Leila remain friends like Rogers & Rafa.
I believe Leylah played one more tournament after the USO and she won it. Or does anyone know if she played more than one after the USO?
I think the only one she played was Indian Wells and she definitely didn’t win that one.
Sabalenka ❤️
This talented young fellow canadian just won the Monterey tournament for the second year in a row! She's only 20! Just hope she's gonna keep grounded and focused.... unlike Bouchard...
Looks like the crowd favoured Leyla over Aryna.
What's the great game here.. Subhanallah...
Hate to say an athlete choked but Aryna did. So many unforced errors on rally shots
More than eight months later and I am still enjoying this. If screaming was the way to win matches, Sabalenka would win; fortunately, that's not the case.
US Open Tennis Championships
Viva ECUADOR
Mabuhay!
Sabalenka is a terrific player and will win this tournament one day..
If she stops the screaming , the crowds might warm to her , and put her in a better frame of mind . Leylah and Emma have shown you don't have to try and intimidate your opponent by screaming to win .
Leylah Fernandez..the female version of Rafael N.
The future will belong to this girl but not for the champion Us. I don’t know why but really feel that. U guys will see in the future.
Sabapenka just overdone her shots. Leylah returns her shots very fast
Mean crowd
Welcome to the US Open 😂
@@sadie513 all grand slam crowd mean
Sabalenka ユーモアもあるよな。記者会見のTシャツ、、笑ってもうたわ。
She played exactly the same as she did against Emma here.. Only Emma won
ahhhhh-mazing leylaaahh
Emma may become a generational player and already an amazing talent! She did it the hardest route possible having to go through 3 qualifier games to win it all. That's essentially playing 43% more games! Who she has beaten were just as impressive. Round 2 she easily dispatched Zhang who she lost just a few weeks ago. She learns quick. Round 3 she almost double bagel Tormo 6-0 6-1. Round 4 she smoked Rogers 6-2 6-1 and Rogers just beaten #1 player in the world a match earlier! Quarter she beaten #11 Bencic easily 6-3 6-4 who just won the Olympic and never lost a set going in and beaten #7 player along the way. Semi's she blew away #17 Sakkri 6-1 6-4 and she beaten #10 Kvitova #6 Andreescu #4 Pliskova. FInal she dispatched Fernandez 6-4 6-3 who had beaten #3 Osaka #5 Svitolina #2 Sabalenk. So in this tournament she brushed aside players who have directly beaten #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #10 players! In fact in the main draw, no one got more than 4 points in a set against her. She was ranked 340's in June and I don't think she played any wta tournaments before and got wildcard at Wimbledon and made it to second week round 4. And the next major finished third week and won it all (when all winners in men or women had only needed to play two weeks to win a major because no qualifier ever achieved that). This is one of the greatest individual athletic feat in history!
that's not how it works.... you can easily make the case that leylah was fatigued from those 3 set battles she had with much superior opponents, whereas emma had significantly easier competition which she took advantage of. nonetheless, emma and leylah are both the future of women's tennis.
Are you serious? Emma had such an easy route to the finals. No Top 10, no consistent players. Sakkari and Bencic are both mentally fragile. Her win is not impressive at all. She’s all media hype
@@roysantiago9131 and why if leylah so strong emma brush her easily..don't say fatique it's so easy reason..well hopefully they will meet again soon
@@noraininoraini7198 These fools are just salty. Fatigue lol. If that's the excuse, I hate to hear all the losers reason for their losses on the men's side which require best of three instead of two in the majors and this tournament had one of the most 5 setters ever played.
Let's see if Emma's still 'brushing aside' players in the next 12 months before judging her greatness. Many on the WTA tour have won slams and risen to the top; however, staying at the top is a different story when there is pressure, expectation and every single player wants your scalp when you step on the tennis court.
Fernandez always looks like she'll lose - until she wins!
OK, is it just me or are the players' serves clipping the net and not being called?
Yeah, it appears that way to me as well, and in the finals. Must be a video optical illusion.
Mr.Sabalenko disoriented himself with his juggernaut screams.
♥️♥️♥️
Very disappointing end to the match by Sabalenka, yet to became a champion
Why are there so many people insulting Leylah? I've seen several people complain that she "whined about the medical timeout", but none of them seem to realize that Leylah didn't know what was going on. She didn't know Raducanu was bleeding, and thought Raducanu had called for a medical timeout as an unfair tactical maneuver to throw off her (Leylah's) momentum. It's a fair mistake, which she acknowledged post-match, and I'm sure any of us would have been emotional about it at such a pivotal point in an important match.
Are you serious ?? She didn't know EMMA was bleeding, 25000 people knew EMMA was bleeding besides all she had to do was look at the giant screen for confirmation. Just, whinging and whining and moaning is all, yo !!
@@robertmartin7594 geez, lay off Leylah is awesome
@@Fernball21 Awesome at whinging, whining and moaning is all, yo !!
