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

Emma is just showing a few signs of stress. She is looking up at her box quite a bit more than she was at the start of the match.
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
What a forehand! Emma Raducanu leaps into a driven effort and it brings up set point number four.
Now can she close this one out...
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
A leaping, slicing serve and Emma Raducanu can only drive a backhand into the tape. Deuce.

Raducanu hasn't done a lot wrong. There was a first hint of nerves on the first set point.
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
Fernandez punches long, Raducanu will get a third chance to take this opening set.
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
Leylah Fernandez saves the first and deals with a ferocious return from Emma Raducanu off the next to make it deuce.

Raducanu looks so positive with her positioning.
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
Now a chance for Emma Raducanu. 15-30 and she prowls the baseline waiting for the next serve.. a huge return, and two set points for the British teenager!

Raducanu hasn't had a 7-5 set since the second round of qualifying. Fernandez is looking a little more comfortable on her serve but the errors are coming from her forehand.
It has been fantastic tennis.
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
A clunky forehand from Emma Raducanu falls short but the next is just inside the baseline and forces Leylah Fernandez into an awkward response that drifts long. 15-15.
Laura Robson
Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 Live
How quick is Fernandez?! She reads the game so early.
*Raducanu 5-4 Fernandez
Oh my word. Emma Raducanu is picking her spots and thinks she has Leylah Fernandez beaten on about four occasions, but the Canadian some retrieves each one. Raducanu finally takes the point as her opponent looks for a lob and just overcooks it. Wow.
The British teenager holds, and all of a sudden is one game away from taking the opening set.

There's a Union Jack draped over one of the stands at Arthur Ashe, the owners are cheering as Emma Raducanu edges ahead on serve and, to be fair, they're probably also applauding a remarkably nonchalant drop shot from Leylah Fernandez that anchors down beyond the tape. 15-15.
Laura Robson
Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 Live
I am in awe of both of these players. You would think they would have been here so many times before. It is not easy to do this.
*Raducanu 4-4 Fernandez
That's loose from Leylah Fernandez, leaking a forehand a long way wide, and that's deuce.
The Canadian is right on the money off the next though, skipping around a forehand winner and then taking another huge hold. It's all square.

Congrats, Steph and Chris...!

I'm currently at a wedding, subtly checking on the score. COME ON EMMA!!

It looks like Fernandez is overthinking where to play her serve. Her racquet head speed is slowing down.

Another double fault from Leylah Fernandez, but she responds with a punchy winner. The new balls are out and Emma Raducanu almost rips the fluff off one with a fierce return that sees her opponent jab into the tape. It's blow for blow though, a deep backhand from Fernandez and that's 30-30.

Paul Marsh: What a match this is so far! For me Fernandez is the better player, but she makes too many unforced errors. Will be interesting to see how they settle as the game grows
Jessie Hosking: The ball striking from Emma Raducanu in that rally was something else
