It’s Day 9 of the U.S. Open tennis tournament in Flushing Meadows, New York and the start of quarterfinal action in men’s and women’s singles.
Emma Navarro has reached her first Grand Slam semifinal by beating Paula Badosa 6-2, 7-5 at the U.S. Open. Navarro is a No. 13-seeded American who had never even won a match in the main draw of her home major before this year. She advanced to face No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka or seventh-seeded Zheng Qinwen in Thursday’s semis. Navarro, who ousted defending champion Coco Gauff in the fourth round, ran through the first set Tuesday in 29 minutes, but the No. 26-seeded Badosa opened a 5-1 lead in the second. Navarro then took six straight games as Badosa’s game fell apart.
The year’s last Grand Slam tournament moves into the quarterfinals on Tuesday, with two women’s matches and two men’s matches. No. 4 Alexander Zverev, the 2020 runner-up in New York takes on No. 12 Taylor Fritz at Arthur Ashe Stadium. At night, starting at 7 p.m. EDT, No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka, who lost to Gauff in last year’s final, takes on Olympic gold medalist Zheng Qinwen, before No. 9 Grigor Dimitrov meets No. 20 Frances Tiafoe.
