Serena serves up an eyeful at Open opener

JUST a subway ride from Broadway, the US Open tennis championship has always thrived on showmanship.

From the Louis Armstrong Stadium to the firework spectaculars and Serena Williams’ latest daring outfit, showbiz reminders are never too far away.

Williams chose the opening night on Monday to unveil her latest creation courtesy of her sponsors Nike. It caused more fuss than the brief encounter that followed against Sandra Kleinova of the Czech Republic.
