Hao-Ching Chan and Maya Joint eliminate Serena and Venus Williams at U.S. Open

Serena and Venus Williams concluded their doubles appearance at the U.S. Open on Friday, September 4, following a three-set loss at Arthur Ashe stadium. Hao-Ching Chan and Maya Joint secured the victory with a final score of 6-3, 6-7 (6), and 7-6 (10-7). The match, which spanned three hours, saw the sisters force a 10-point tiebreaker after trailing in the opening set.

The match ended with the sisters greeting their opponents at the net before departing the court.
