US Open Gabriela Dabrowski in women’s doubles final

(New York) Ontarian Gabriela Dabrowski and her New Zealand partner Erin Routiliffe qualified on Friday for the women’s doubles final of the United States Open tennis tournament.

Dabrowski and Routliffe achieved the feat thanks to a victory in two sets of 6-1, 7-6 (4) against the tandem of Taiwanese Su-Wei Hsieh and Chinese Xinyu Wang on Friday.

Almost three months ago to the day, Hsieh and Wang won the women’s doubles final of the French Open – another Grand Slam tournament – against the duo of Laval’s Leylah Fernandez and American Taylor Townsend.

Dabrowski and Routliffe won 62% of points after placing their first service ball in play. They also converted seven of their nine break chances.

Dabrowski, who has two Grand Slam triumphs in mixed doubles, has never won a women’s doubles title at a major tournament.

In the other semi-final, the American Jennifer Brady and the Brazilian Luisa Stefani battled the German Laura Siegemund and the Russian Vera Zvonareva.

The ultimate match will be presented at Arthur-Ashe stadium on Sunday.
