Britain's Emma Raducanu beats Canada's Leylah Fernandez 6-4 6-3 in US Open women's singles final
Raducanu is the first qualifier in the Open era to reach a Grand Slam final
The 18-year-old was the first British woman in a major singles final in 44 years
She wins the title without dropping a set after a sensational journey in New York
Unseeded Fernandez, 19, ranked 73rd in the world, makes this the first all-teenage final since Serena Williams v Martina Hingis in 1999
Raducanu has not dropped a set in the nine matches she has played in the tournament (three in the qualifiers and six in the main draw)
She had a world ranking of 150 going into this tournament
Raducanu 6-4 6-3 Fernandez
Soak it up, Emma!
The 18-year-old celebrates with her box, high fives everyone in her path and still just looks so calm.
Probably more so than everyone at home! Any nails left?
Emma Raducanu is the US Open champion, sounds good, doesn't it?!

Raducanu 6-4 6-3 Fernandez
I'd say get the champagne on ice but Emma Raducanu isn't even old enough to have a drink in New York. This is incredible.

Emma Raducanu is the US Open champion, the British qualifier has done it!
Wow, wow, wow. A fairytale, a dream, call it what you like this is just remarkable.
Raducanu, at 18 years old and in just her second major tournament, becomes the first British woman to win a Grand Slam singles crown since Virginia Wade 44 years ago!

You are kidding me!

The hardest possible smash for Raducanu to hit.
*Raducanu 6-4 5-3 Fernandez
Saved! Emma Raducanu needed every millimetre of her frame there to coax that volley in.
She batters down a serve on the next, follows with a punchy groundstroke and now it is championship point once more for Raducanu.

For the first time in the match the situation is getting to them. It was a timid point.
*Raducanu 6-4 5-3 Fernandez
A bit of a tentative forehand from Emma Raducanu allows Leylah Fernandez to stick in the point and then the British qualifier goes long with another off the forehand side. Break back point once again.

Emma Raducanu finds some good depth and Leylah Fernandez hooks long. That's deuce.

So after all that, it is break back point Leylah Fernandez...

Fernandez is really getting wound up. The match had to stop.

I mean, did we need any more drama?! Emma Raducanu returns to the baseline with a patch over her bloodied knee.
Laura Robson

The rules are quite specific.
Russell Fuller

Raducanu looks very good. I don't think the pain will be an issue. The adrenalin will block that out. It is unfortunate timing but there is nothing that can be done.
It is not great for either player.
*Raducanu 6-4 5-3 Fernandez
Does that suit Raducanu or Fernandez better?! The Canadian doesn't look too happy, she is having a heated discussion with the umpire. But I'm not sure Raducanu has much choice...
Her knee is currently being patched up.

Both of these girls are unbelievable movers.
