Venus Williams faces Sofia Kenin in a first-round US Open singles match on Arthur Ashe Stadium, their first career meeting. At 46, Williams enters with an 0-11 record in 2026, including straight-set losses on hard courts and no Grand Slam singles win since 2019, though her longevity and seven major titles draw strong home crowds. Kenin, ranked around 110 after a 6-20 season, holds clear edges in recent match fitness, return effectiveness, and hard-court results despite her own inconsistencies. The matchup favors Kenin’s superior pace and consistency, with traders pricing her as a heavy favorite reflecting the age and form gulf while noting any Williams power or crowd energy as limited upset factors in a best-of-three format.
