Taylor Townsend and Jelena Ostapenko had an intense discussion following their second round US Open match. Ostapenko accused Townsend of being disrespectful and having no class for not apologizing for a net cord. Taylor responded by essentially calling Ostapenko a sore loser. Meanwhile, Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina face tough third round matchups against Leylah Fernandez and Emma Raducanu.
