Azarenka’s key shot is drop-dead gorgeous at U.S. Open
NEW YORK (MCT) — Victoria Azarenka put a sunny spin on a gloomy, rainy, sodden day at the U.S. Open.
Azarenka, the top-seeded woman in the tournament and the top-ranked player in the world, brazenly pulled off a dangerous drop shot at a key moment in a final-set tiebreaker and sent off popular defending champion Samantha Stosur, 6-1, 4-6, 7-6 (5), Tuesday.
Rain interrupted Azarenka’s victory and it also interrupted most of the rest of the day’s sessions.
