Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Serena Williams' hopes of securing a calendar Grand Slam were ended in stunning fashion by Italy's Roberta Vinci in the semi-finals.
Vinci, the world number 43 and playing her first Grand Slam semi-final, caused a huge upset with a 2-6 6-4 6-4 win.
Williams, 33, had been two wins from completing a clean sweep of all four majors in 2015.
Vinci, 32, will play Flavia Pennetta in an all-Italian final at Flushing Meadows on Saturday.

Wow! Simone Halep, the #2 seed, got bounced as well. She got trounced, really.
Upsets galore on the women's side.
War Federer!!
The men play later on tonight.
Saw a little of the post-match interview with Serena. I must say..... there's several jobs that are comparable in degree of enjoyment, as far as I'm concerned. Cesspool cleaning, alligator wrestling, disposable diaper bin emptying.......... and interviewing Serena Williams. Especially after a loss. I'd rather get a root canal without anesthetic.
