[15] Bianca Andreescu -15- (CAN) def [19] Caroline Wozniacki -19- (DEN)
Match recap from Arthur Ashe Stadium announcer Andy Taylor.
Lots of red in this scoreline…Set-2 turned into a service-game bloodbath. Both Andreescu and 2-time Finalist Wozniacki had a clear beat on each others’ offerings.
Wozniacki made the most of her 4 break chances. Meanwhile, Andreescu completely overwhelmed the 2018 Australian Open champ, breaking Caroline 4-times in a ridiculous 13-opportunities.
Round of 16 in Bianca Andreescu’s US Open main draw debut? That’s a solid week for the 19-year-old Canadian. But she’s not done. She’ll get the Serve-and-Volley Cinderella Story in Round-4.
NEXT: Taylor Townsend -116- (USA) vs [15] Bianca Andreescu -15- (CAN)
