Yeah I know the US Open happened three months ago, but I had drafted this post partway back then, and just got to finishing it now. This shows the 8 quarter-finalists from both the women’s and men’s draws. If you see any corrections, please let me know in the comments!

Got an interesting tip that Sherbini might have already been playing with her new Tecnifibre Carboflex X-Speed 125 NS at the US Open (of course, painted to look like a Carboflex 125 S). You can see here it’s got a distinctive wrapper at the top of the grip, which is part of the new Carboflex design — so this might be the case!
