The US Open reaches the quarter-final stage at Flushing Meadows on Tuesday., with the action live on Sky Sports.
America will be represented by Taylor Fritz, Francis Tiafoe and Emma Navarro in the quarter-finals.
Fritz faces Alexander Zverev with Tiafoe taking on Grigor Dimitrov in the men’s draw. In Tuesday’s women’s quarter-finals Paula Badosa plays Navarro, while Aryna Sabalenka goes up against Zheng Qinwen
Tiafoe established himself as one of the US Open’s chief entertainers after a thrilling five-set victory over fellow American Ben Shelton. He then defeated Alexei Popyrin with the Australian coming off his stunning win over Novak Djokovic.
Tiafoe, seeded 20th, is attempting to match his best ever run at a Grand Slam as he faces ninth seed Dimitrov for a final-four berth.
Tiafoe lost to eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz at the semi-final stage in 2022. He is the first US men’s player to reach three consecutive US Open quarter-finals since Andy Roddick, who is also the last American male to win their home slam back in 2003.
“Seeing the Williams sisters win titles here, seeing Roger (Federer) win here a million times, I was like, I want to play on this court and it’s so iconic – obviously named after Arthur Ashe,” he said.
“I wanted to be part of that and it brings out the best in me.”
Tiafoe added: “I’m just taking it day by day, literally. Grand Slams, two weeks, there’s a lot going on.
“You can’t get ahead of yourself and look at what could happen and things shaking out. Everyone is good, so it doesn’t really matter who’s in or who’s not.”
Bulgaria’s Dimitrov dashed a comeback attempt by sixth seed Andrey Rublev to reach the US Open quarter-finals for the first time since 2019.
Navarro is through to the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam for the second time in her career and the first at the US Open after she upset defending champion Coco Gauff last time out.
“This is the city I was born in and it feels so special to be playing here,” Navarro said.
