NEW YORK (AP) Past U.S. Open champions Kim Clijsters and Andy Murray received wild-card invitations for the Grand Slam tournament Thursday. The U.S. Tennis Association gave all of its other wild cards for singles play to Americans. Clijsters is a four-time major champion and former No. 1 who came out of retirement this year after already being elected to the International Tennis Hall of Fame. The U.S. Open - which she won in 2005, 2009 and 2010 - would mark the 37-year-old Belgian's first Grand Slam appearance since a second-round loss at Flushing Meadows in 2012. |
