Emma Raducanu vs Leylah Annie Fernandez live stream: how to watch US Open Women's Final for free

It's time for the Emma Raducanu vs Leylah Annie Fernandez live stream, and this match is unique in that it is all about the teens. No, we're not talking the audience demos. 

This is the first all-teens Grand Slam final since 1999 (back when a 17-year-old Serena Williams beat an 18-year-old Martina Hingis at Wimbledon). But who shall win this final women's US Open live stream and take center stage?

Raducanu's semifinals round was a tad smoother, as she beat Maria Sakkari 6-1, 6-4 in just 84 minutes. Remarkably, she's the first qualifier to reach a Grand Slam final in the Open era and the youngest Slam finalist in 17 years. She's also making history for her home country, as the first British woman in the US Open final since 1968 (hi, Virginia Wade!). And she's still yet to drop a set in nine matches. 

Fernandez made it past Aryna Sabalenka with a bit more trouble, with a box score of 7-6 (7-3), 4-6, 6-4. The third set was a mix of Fernandez staying cool under pressure and Sabalenka fighting back, before Sabalenka ran out of steam in the final game, making several unforced errors as Fernandez clinched the victory.

Fernandez played the babyface to the hometown crowd, saying "I would say it’s thanks to the New York crowd," in an on-court interview. "They’ve helped me today, they’ve cheered for me. They never gave up on me, they fought for me. Thanks to you, I was able to win, so thank you New York."
