Aldila Sutjiadi Tumbang In The Semifinals Of The US Open 2024

JAKARTA The journey of Indonesia's mainstay women's tennis player, Aldila Sutjiadi, at the 2024 US Open Grand Slam event stopped in the mixed doubles semifinals.

Aldila, who played in the number with Indian tennis player Rohan Bopanna, failed to reach the final after losing 6-3 and 6-4 to the host pair, Taylor Townsend/Donald Young, on Wednesday, September 4, 2024, morning WIB.

Townsend/Young will next meet third seed Sara Errani/Andrea Vavossori, from Italy in the final to fight for the title.

In the first set, Aldila/Bopanna, who had trailed 0-3, got up and equalized. However, the opponent got up and scored consecutive points in the next three games.

Aldila/Bopanna then had a 2-1 lead in the second set, but they lost momentum after the opponent hit back with four points in a row.

Even though they managed to win the seventh and ninth games to cut the score 4-5, Aldila/Bopanna even lost their 10th game so that the opponent was certain to win.

This defeat also ended Aldila's dream of getting the title of the first Grand Slam in her brilliant career.

At the US Open 2024, she also actually played in the women's doubles sector with Japanese tennis player, Ena Shibahara. However, he ran aground in the round of 16.

The last four US Open 2024 trips are the third semifinal mixed doubles in Aldila's record at Grand Slam. He previously also reached that round at the French Open and Wimbledon 2023.
