US Open tennis 2022: Schedule of play, how to watch on TV, plus who is left in the tournament?
There are four debut US Open men's semi-finalists, the first time that's happened since the first year of the event in 1881, when it was known as the US Championships.
One of them is Frances Tiafoe, the first American man to get that far at his home grand slam tournament since Andy Roddick in 2006. The No 22 seed faces Carlos Alcaraz in the evening semi-final, after fifth seed Casper Ruud plays Karen Khachanov in the afternoon. Ruud is the only one who has previously reached this stage in a major, losing to Rafael Nadal in this year's French Open final.
The Norwegian will become the new world No 1 if he wins and Alcaraz loses. But Alcaraz, 19, would become the youngest No 1 if he wins and Ruud loses. He'll have to summon enough energy after playing consecutive five-set matches, including his quarter-final victory over Jannik Sinner that took 5 hours, 15 minutes and finished at 2:50 am., the latest ending in U.S. Open history.
When is the US Open?
The tournament began at Flushing Meadows on Monday, August 29 and will finish on Sunday, September 11.
What happened to the Brits?
In total, seven Britons gained direct entry into the singles draws, although as the tournament reaches the midway point just one remains standing after British No 1 Cameron Norrie reached the fourth round for the first time but was beaten in straight sets by Russian Andrey Rublev on Monday.
Andy Murray reached the third round where he lost in four sets to the big-serving Italian Matteo Berrettini, while rising star Jack Draper's run ended when he retired injured in his third-round match with Karen Khachanov.
Kyle Edmund, playing singles at a grand slam for the first time in two years following three knee operations, was knocked out in straight sets by fifth seed Casper Ruud, while 20th seed Dan Evans lost to 2014 US Open champion Marin Cilic over four sets in the third round.
In the women's singles, defending champion Emma Raducanu crashed out in straight sets to Alize Cornet in the first round, while Harriet Dart secured a superb upset win over 10th seed Daria Kasatkina before being dumped out in round two.
