American legend Serena Williams will take on Kristie Ahn in the opening round of the US Open 2020. The encounter will take place on Tuesday (September 1) at the Arthur Ashe Stadium in Flushing Meadows, New York. Williams, who last won the US Open in 2014, is in the quest to clinch her 24th grand slam title. Also, with Bianca Andreescu and six other top-10 ranked players pulling out of the tournament, Williams is the front runner to lift the trophy. In the first round, however, she will be challenged by compatriot Kristie Ahn, who advanced to the fourth round in the previous edition of US Open.

Ahn was a wildcard entrant in the previous edition of the gala grand slam tournament. However, she managed to make a statement for herself by defeating the likes of Svetlana Kuznetsova and Jelena Ostapenko. She even got qualified for the quarter-finals of Korea Open later that year. Hence, Williams, who hasn’t been in great form lately, will take some beating to get the better of Ahn. Also, Williams has never been kicked out in the first round of the US Open, and she’ll like to maintain that record while Ahn has a great chance to create history.
