US Open: Navarro Outshines Badosa To Reach Maiden Grand Slam Semifinal
Paris Olympic Games: Emma Navarro, seeded 13th, outclassed Spain's Paula Badosa in the US Open women's singles quarterfinals after coming from 5-1 behind in the second set to book spot in her maiden Grand Slam semifinal.
Playing in front of her home crowd, Navarro registered a 6-2, 7-5 win after scripting an astonishing comeback in the second set to progress to the last four of the US Open. The result will guarantee her a debut top 10 ranking next week. The 23-year-old American is continuing her breakthrough season which saw her lifting the first WTA Tour title in Hobart in January.
Both players in the match were former major quarterfinalists seeking to advance further. Badosa took over three years to reach the last eight stage again after her first Slam quarterfinal at Roland Garros in 2021, while Navarro followed up her Wimbledon quarterfinal debut this year with another at the US Open.
