Two of the most improved players on the women's circuit Sara Errani and Angelique Kerber today collide at the biggest stage of them all – the US Open.

Her opponent today, Angelique Kerber has had a remarkable year so far. Last year at the Open, Kerber made the semis and it is from there that the German kicked off. She made the semis of Wimbledon too this year, and has jumped from in the ranking to her present rank – no.6 in the world. A couple of weeks ago, it was the left hander who broke Serena Williams' 19 match winning run to reach the finals in Cincinnati. What exemplifies her fantastic year is the fact that the German has an astonishing no. of wins this year at 53. She has also won 2 titles this year.

Her opponent – Sara Errani has reinvented herself this season. The Italian is currently ranked as World No. 10 and she has won 4 WTA titles this season. Errani has an impressive 45-15 win-loss record for the season so far. The twenty five years Old Italian also reached her maiden Grand Slam final at Roland Garros this season but she failed to win the title.

These two have played each other just twice before both own a win against one another.
