Serena Williams has clinched six US Open titles
Serena Williams made her singles debut at the U.S. Open in 1998. Since then, she has gradually established herself as the U.S. Open’s dominant player over the course of a quarter-century, winning six singles titles, making it to four further singles finals, winning two doubles championships with Venus, and taking home a mixed doubles crown.
