Svitolina, seemingly overwhelmed by the enormity of the occasion, is no match for Halep’s unwavering consistency.
Serena Williams is one win away from a record-equalling 24th Grand Slam singles title after a 59-minute 6-1, 6-2 demolition of Barbora Strycova in the semifinals on Thursday. She hit 28 winners to Strycova’s eight, won 24 of 27 first-serve points and 13 of 16 at the net in her most commanding performance at this year’s championship.
Standing in her way in Saturday’s summit clash will be the 2018 French Open champion Simona Halep, who dominated a nervous Elina Svitolina 6-1, 6-3. The two matches were far from engaging, but for Serena and Halep they were the best routes to the final.
