Andreescu battles to dramatic 3-set win in 1st round at US Open

Bianca Andreescu is still unbeaten at the U.S. Open.

She won the tournament in her debut in 2019, missed it last year because she was injured and now has closed out the first round with a three-set victory in which she needed a visit from the trainer for an upset stomach.

The injury-prone 21-year-old from Canada came back from a break down in the final set to defeat 45th-ranked Viktorija Golubic of Switzerland 7-5, 4-6, 7-5.

Andreescu broke Golubic to end it, then leaned over and shouted “Come on!”

Now Andreescu will put her 8-0 U.S. Open record on the line against American Lauren Davis next.

Golubic fell to 0-5 at Flushing Meadows.
