2:35 p.m.
Wimbledon runner-up Garbine Muguruza is out of the U.S. Open.
The ninth-seeded Spaniard was upset by qualifier Johanna Konta 7-6 (4), 6-7 (4), 6-2 in the second round Thursday. At 3 hours, 23 minutes, it was the U.S. Open's longest women's match since the tournament introduced tiebreakers in 1970.
Muguruza had made at least the fourth round at the year's first three majors, losing to Serena Williams in the Wimbledon title match.
Three of the four women who had reached Grand Slam finals in 2015 are already gone from the U.S. Open before the third round: Australian Open runner-up Maria Sharapova withdrew because of injury, and French Open runner-up Lucie Safarova was upset in the first round. The only one left is the woman who beat them all in those title matches, Williams.
With Muguruza's defeat, six of the top 10 seeds in the women's draw are out at Flushing Meadows.
Muguruza had lost her opening match at her next two tournaments after Wimbledon. The U.S. Open is the only major at which the 21-year-old Muguruza has failed to make at least the fourth round in her young career. She had never even won a match at Flushing Meadows before Tuesday.
Konta, a 24-year-old Brit ranked 97th in the world, is into the third round at a Grand Slam tournament for the first time. She is now on a 15-match winning streak after capturing titles at two lower-level events then advancing through U.S. Open qualifying.

Sam Stosur is happy to be in the third round of the US Open but she's not happy that Serena Williams kicked her off a practice court yesterday(:

Asked if she thought world No. 1 Serena Williams had a courtesy car on call, Stosur replied: "I'd say so. She kicked me off my practice court yesterday, too. A few issues, but it's all right."
