Emma Raducanu vs Leylah Fernandez is a women’s final clash at the 2021 US Open and here are all the details of the live stream without Reddit or Buffstream, prediction, preview and more
For the first time since 1999, the US Open will witness an all-teenage women’s singles final, and this will also be the first time two unseeded players take centre stage in the final since the Open Era began in 1968 – courtesy, Emma Raducanu and Leylah Fernandez.
Raducanu, just 18 years old, made it to the final of the 2021 US Open after beating Maria Sakkari of Greece in the semi-finals – 6-1, 6-4.
In doing so, Raducanu became the first British woman in 44 years to reach a Grand Slam Final, since Virginia Wade did it, at the 1977 Wimbledon.
She also became US Open’s first British women’s finalist since, 1968.
The most impressive thing is that she is yet to drop a set, and also made it to the main draw after winning three qualifying matches in quick succession.
In her path stands another teenage sensation, Leylah Fernandez. The Canadian turned 19 just 4 days ago, and has been ruthless throughout the tournament.
She is coming off a three-set win over Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals – 7-6, 4-6, 6-4. Prior to that, she had been on a giant-killing spree, defeating favourite Naomi Osaka in the third round, Angelique Kerber in the Round of 16 and Elina Svitolina in the quarterfinals.
