Serena Williams claimed she had suffered her worst ever Grand Slam after her shock defeat in the Australian Open to teenager Sloane Stephens. The hot favourite for the title was hindered by a back injury as the Wimbledon and US Open champion lost for the first time since August. It was also the 31-year-old first defeat to an American younger than her. The No.29 seed, who beat Laura Robson in the third round, won 3-6 7-5 6-4 in the biggest upset of the tournament. The winner of 15 Grand Slams had been on a winning run of 20 matches while Stephens was appearing in her first Grand Slam quarter final. But Williams rolled her ankle in the first round here, hit herself in the face with her racquet in the second round, and felt her back seize up.

Sloane Stephens will face Madison Keys in the US Open final as the next generation of American talent took centre stage at Flushing Meadows. After two decades of dominance from the Williams sisters, either 24-year-old Stephens or 22-year-old Keys will become the first American woman from outside the family to win a grand slam singles title since Jennifer Capriati in 2002. Venus Williams led four players from the host nation into the semi-finals for the first time in 36 years and boasted more wins in New York than the other three put together. But the 37-year-old had to cede the advantage to Stephens, who prevailed in a terrific deciding set to win 6-1 0-6 7-5 before Keys crushed Coco Vandeweghe 6-1 6-2.

Serena Williams' quest for a 24th Grand Slam singles title at the US Open remains alive after she came from a set down to defeat Sloane Stephens in the third round. Williams' form coming into the tournament offered little encouragement for her supporters but she has stepped up her game on the big stage so many times that it was no surprise to see her among the title favourites anyway, particularly with six of the top 10 missing. She won her first two matches in straight sets but this was always going to be a bigger test, and it was one she looked unlikely to pass in a first set that was dominated by 2017 champion Stephens. But Williams, who turns 39 later this month, changed things around in the middle of the second set and ended a 2-6 6-2 6-2 victory with her prospects significantly enhanced. Williams described the win as "intense" ( Image: JASON SZENES/EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock) Speaking on court, she said: "It was intense. We always have some … [Read more...] about Serena Williams battles back to beat Sloane Stephens and keep 24th Grand Slam dream alive

Prince William made no response when he was asked whether he backed his uncle who is facing a civil trial accusing him of having sex with a trafficking victim, aged 17 at the time.

A New Jersey committeeman said he was leaving the Democratic Party in response to “expanded abortion legislation” under Gov. Phil Murphy, according to a statement obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The Democratic party of today is not at all in line with my views.
