Azarenka could not continue the match and later complained of blurry vision. The 90-degree heat didn't help. Why doesn't the US Open take place in September?

Douche Juice John Koblin of The Observer chimes in with Can't Blame the Heat for Azarenka's Fall:

The early consensus in the press room seems to be that this was likely related to her fitness, and not exclusively a reflection of the heat out there. It's just over 90 degrees now, and it was hotter at times yesterday.

AccuWeather? It's 96° today. Was 95° yesterday and was 91° on Monday when she beat Niculescu in 3 sets.

Fitness this. No matter what the eventual diagnosis is - 96° contributed unless it's fucking frostbite.

*Update...oh, looky here.
