Kuznetsova saved three match points and displayed some amazing mental strength! I have never seen her so mentally strong and she was able to come up with impressive shots to save all three match points! DAVAI!
Makarova, Sharapova, Vesnina and Kasatkina were other Russians who also won their matches on the third day of the US Open.
