Part of situation: Venus Williams exits US Open after first-round loss (2 clusters)

Venus Williams loses US Open first round in historic late-night match

US Open Venus Williams Sofia Kenin tennis Grand Slam

Venus Williams exited the US Open in the first round of singles, losing to compatriot Sofia Kenin with a score of 6-2, 7-6 (6). The 46-year-old veteran, competing as a wildcard, extended her singles losing streak to 15 matches.

The match at Arthur Ashe Stadium set historical precedents, beginning at 12:13 a.m. following a lengthy five-set match between Novak Djokovic and Mariano Navone. This marked the latest start for a match in US Open history, with the contest concluding at 2:01 a.m.

Williams, who has won seven Grand Slam singles titles, expressed frustration regarding the scheduling, stating, “I just don’t know any other sport where you have to start that late. I definitely think there’s room for improvement there.” Despite the singles loss, Williams is scheduled to compete in the women’s doubles tournament alongside her sister, Serena Williams.
