Carol Young Suh Lee: Troubles continued for veteran American player Venus Williams as she was defeated by compatriot Sofia Kenin in the women's singles first round at the US Open, marking another early exit from a Grand Slam tournament on Monday (IST).
Kenin defeated Williams, who received a wild card into the main draw, by winning the final six points of their 2026 US Open first-round match, saving seven set points in the second set.
Kenin, the 2020 Australian Open champion, escaped with a 6-2, 7-6(6) victory, setting up a second-round meeting with Jessica Pegula.
