a.) Roger Federer

b.) Novak Djokovic

c.) Rafael Nadal

d.) Bjorn Borg

1st Round. b. Williams won three U.S. Opens in a row from 2012-14. The most recent man to win at least two consecutive trophies in New York was Federer, who was the champion five consecutive years, 2004-08.

2nd Round. a. Seppi was beaten 6-0, 7-5, 6-1 by Rafael Nadal at Ashe in the second round on Aug. 31, 2016. The match was delayed for less than 7 1/2 minutes at 3-all in the second set while the roof was shut.

3rd Round. c. The change came a year after Billie Jean King earned $10,000 for winning the 1972 U.S. Open, while the men's champion, Ilie Năstase, was paid $25,000. The Australian Open didn’t permanently start equal pay until 2001; the French Open in 2006; Wimbledon in 2007.

4th Round. d. Graf, who retired with 22 Grand Slam titles in 1999, was ranked No. 1 for 377 weeks. Navratilova is next with 332, followed by Williams with 319 and Evert with 260.

Quarterfinals. d. They never met at the U.S. Open. At the other majors, Federer led Nadal 3-1 at Wimbledon, and Nadal led Federer 3-1 at the Australian Open and 6-0 at the French Open.

Semifinals. a. Kerber beat Serena Williams in the Australian Open final in 2016, and Karolina Pliskova in the U.S. Open final that year. Hingis won both events in 1997, and Seles did it in 1991 and 1992. Williams never did the Australian-U.S. double, despite winning seven Australian Opens and six U.S. Opens.

Final. c. Nadal swept the year's last three majors in 2010. No man had done that since Laver went 4-for-4, and no man has done it since. Djokovic came close to a true Slam in 2021, winning the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon, then making it all the way to the final at the U.S. Open before losing to Daniil Medvedev, falling one win shy of a perfect, 28-0 Grand Slam season.

NEWTON, Mass. (AP) — A pro-Israel rally in a Boston suburb turned violent Thursday evening when a passerby was shot during a scuffle after confronting a group of demonstrators, authorities said.

Police were called at 6:40 p.m. to the scene of what they described as a small rally in Newton. Words were exchanged before a passerby rapidly crossed the street and tackled one of the demonstrators, Middlesex County District Attorney Marian Ryan said.

“A scuffle ensued. During that scuffle, the individual who had come across the street was shot by a member of the demonstrating group,” Ryan said during a news conference late Thursday.

Scott Hayes, 47, of Framingham, was arrested on charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and violation of a constitutional right causing injury. He is scheduled to be arraigned in district court Friday, Ryan said.

The shooting victim, who was not identified, was being treated at a hospital for life-threatening injuries, Ryan said.

Acting Newton Police Chief George McMains asked witnesses to provide investigators with photos or videos of the confrontation. He said police would provide extra patrols at “houses of worship” over the next several days.

Newton Mayor Ruthanne Fuller called the shooting a “frightening incident” and asked for everyone to remain calm as police investigate.

“I know people will have a lot of questions, and we will share information with Newtonians and the press when we are able,” Fuller said. “It's really early stages of an active investigation.”
