WORLD No. 1 Victoria Azarenka is playing well but Olympic and Wimbledon champion Serena Williams is the one to beat for the US Open women's crown, says 2011 US Open winner Samantha Stosur.
"Serena, when she's on, is pretty tough to beat," Stosur said. "She's the favorite to go on and win. She has been playing incredible the last few months. If anybody's going to beat her they have to play very well, be aggressive, hit winners, not give her anything, and try and temper her serve. She is going to be very tough," Stosur said.
"Victoria played really well so you can't discount anyone (but) I think, going on form before this event and so far, it's very hard to go past her."
But "(Azarenka) fights very hard every single match and she does it very well. That's probably part of the reason she's No. 1 at the moment."
