NEW YORK - Venus Williams ended his Grand Slam season Thursday night with a victory of 6-2, 5-7, 7-5 second-round loss in the sixth-seeded Angelique Kerber at the Open U.S..
Williams, the 2000 and 2001 champion at Flushing Meadows, he finished with 60 unforced errors. The match lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes.
He finished the year with only two victories in Grand Slam tournaments - one at the French Open and one at Flushing Meadows.
Last year, Williams left the U.S. Open before her second-round match, suffering from Sjogren's syndrome, a disease that causes joint pain and fatigue.
Thursday, Williams lost his service twice in the second set but came back to win twice and force a third set. But he lost his service in the Kerber 5-5 and served for the victory in September
