FLUSHING MEADOWS, N.Y., Sept. 6 -- Eighteen months after giving birth to her first child and less than one month after coming out of retirement, Kim Clijsters was an unlikely candidate for toppling Venus Williams at this year's U.S.
Open.
But in a match with wild shifts of momentum, Clijsters proved the more dogged competitor and pulled off the stunning upset, ousting the tournament's third seed and two-time champion, 6-0, 0-6, 6-4, to advance to the quarterfinals of the season's final major.
