A whopping 26 years after she won the first of two @usopen doubles titles, 45-year-old @Venuseswilliams enters the women's doubles with @leylahfernandez. Just the second time she's played doubles here since 2014.

A look at how @iga_swiatek's partnership with Wim Fisette is bearing fruit, thanks to their off-season work, good communication and a couple of new ideas

Previous US Open champ Iga Swiatek is on a roll -- could her coaching change be the key to it?

Utterly dominant opening win for @iga_swiatek. She looks so confident right now. Big favourite (in my mind) for the @usopen title.

Don't think too many people expected this. Venus levels her match with Muchova at one set all.

Venus is playing pretty damned well here, at the age of 45. Pretty amazing to see.

Svitolina smashes her racquet after losing to Anna Bondar. Bad day at the office.

The end of a truly great career as @Petra_Kvitova plays her last ever professional match at the @usopen. Two @Wimbledon titles, 31 titles worldwide, the purest of ball-strikers and a player liked and respected by everyone. Time to enjoy family and retirement!

Also think he'd benefit from a little time off.

Just watched back the Medvedev-Bonzi incident. Medvedev totally out of order, umpire was correct to make it a first serve. No doubt he'll get a big fine.

Fun to chat to Australia's Maya Joint about her impressive rise in the past 12 months and why she made the move, as a 16-year-old, from Michigan to Brisbane

Good win for Jordan Thompson over Corentin Moutet - coped well with everything that comes when you play him. .

Fantastic effort from Fran Jones to qualify for the @usopen main draw. Looked really confident today. Well inside the top 100 now.

Good to see @benshelton practising serve and volley at the @usopen. Serve and volleying not easy these days but when you've got a serve like Shelton's, why not take advantage of it, and shorten the points.

Popped in for coffee at Little Collins in New York today - no surprise to see plenty of Australians in there, which is a good excuse to link to a piece I wrote for @espn last year

This year at the US Open, Jordan Thompson, Max Purcell, Alexei Popyrin and many others have one daily routine in common: They all go to Little Collins, an Australian coffee shop in Midtown.
