Unseeded Sloane Stephens completed a spectacular return from injury by beating fellow American Madison Keys to win the US Open at Flushing Meadows.
Stephens, ranked 83rd, beat 15th seed Keys in 2 sets in the final.
The 24‑year‑old was ranked as low as 957th six weeks ago, having only returned from 11 months out with a foot injury at Wimbledon.
She becomes only the fifth unseeded woman to win a major title in the Open era.
Meanwhile, top seed Rafael Nadal will start as a strong favourite when he takes on South Africa's Kevin Anderson in the US Open final at 8am tomorrow.
The Spaniard, bidding for a 16th Grand Slam title, will play in his 23rd major final, but Anderson is making his debut in a Slam final.
The pair, have known each other since junior days, and Nadal has won all four previous meetings.
