Serena Williams cruised past China's Qiang Wang in just 44 minutes in Arthur Ashe Stadium on Tuesday night, securing her place in the semifinals while also hitting the latest milestone in her storied career.
The quarterfinal victory was Williams' 100th US Open singles win, a mark that is one shy of Chris Evert's all-time record. Should Serena complete her ultimate mission and win her 24th Grand Slam singles title this fortnight, she will stand alone at 102.
