The first day of quarterfinal play at the 2019 US Open went according to plan—or at least according to seeding—through the first three matches, but Grigor Dimitrov flipped the script by upsetting Roger Federer in five sets in the Arthur Ashe Stadium nightcap.That was restricted to Men’s only as - Serena Williams opened the evening session by notching her 100th career US Open singles victory, after Elina Svitolina and Daniil Medvedev advanced earlier in the day.There would always be upsets also strong comebacks ! Evonne Fay Goolagong Cawley’s history makes a very interesting read.This Australian was one of the world's leading players in the 1970s and early 1980s, the number one Australian pro on tour after the retirement of Margaret Court. Goolagong Cawley won 14 Grand Slam titles: seven in singles (four at the Australian Open, two at Wimbledon and one at the French Open), six in women's doubles, and one in mixed doubles. Goolagong realised during the 1976 US Open final that she was pregnant and did not play again on the regular tour until the late summer of 1977, continuing through to Wimbledon 1978. She is the only mother to have won the Wimbledon title since Dorothea Lambert Chambers in 1914. She had a daughter in 1977 and won the 1980 Wimbledon title. The USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center is a stadium complex within Flushing Meadows–Corona Park in Queens, New York City, United States.The site of the park was once geologically part of the Hudson River. It hosted the 1964 New York World's Fair and fell into despair thereafter.It has been the home of the US Open Grand Slam tennis tournament, played every year in August and September, since 1978 and is operated by the United States Tennis Association (USTA).The facility has 22 courts inside its 46.5 acres (0.188 km2; 0.0727 sq mi)and 11 in the adjoining park.
