NEW YORK - Serena Williams claimed her 100th win at the U.S. Open in style on Tuesday, dismantling her quarter-final opponent Wang Qiang 6-1 6-0 in a blistering 44-minute performance that ended any questions over a twisted ankle from the previous round.
The eighth-seeded American joins Chris Evert as the only two players to log at least 100 victories at the tournament. Williams is now only one behind Evert’s mark. “It feels good,” Williams said of her performance. “This is how hard I’ve been working. It feels like ... hard work pays off when that happens.”
“I’m extremely passionate about what I do. Most people that love their jobs are passionate about what they do. That’s just me.”
