At the US Open, Ben Shelton, the fifth seed, secured a victory against Jiri Lehecka, finishing with back-to-back aces to claim three match points. Coco Gauff, the second-seeded American, advanced to the quarter-finals after a minor rusty performance following a bye in the previous round.
In an exciting match, Gauff secured a spot in the last eight with a concluding break of Lucia Bronzetti's serve. Gauff mentioned that she had a lot of aces and unreturnables during the match, and the contest lasted for 79 minutes.
Meanwhile, Jasmine Paolini, the seventh seed, had a stellar performance, crushing Barbora Krejcikova 6-1, 6-2 to advance to the quarter-finals. Paolini won seven straight games on the way to a 4-0 second-set lead. However, Krejcikova had treatment on her left foot during the match, and her movement was clearly hampered.
In the men's draw, Sinner dropped his serve in the second set but managed to break back and win the match. Auger-Aliassime meekly lost the opening set and delivered three double-faults in the final game. Sinner stated that his serving was key to his victory and acknowledged that Auger-Aliassime moves and serves well, making him difficult to play against.
The quarter-finals promise some exciting encounters. Gauff will face Paolini, with Gauff having previously beaten Paolini here two years ago on the way to the title. Shelton will face third-seeded Alexander Zverev, a match that will be their third encounter this season. Zverev has won all three of their previous matches, including a quarter-final here last year.
Sinner, who is playing his first tournament since his Wimbledon triumph, will face either Terence Atmane or Holger Rune for a place in the final.
