Despite playing into the early morning hours in his previous two five-set matches, the 19-year-old showed no signs of fatigue on Friday, racing around the court to win the hard-fought battle. "We are in a semi-final at a Grand Slam and we have to give everything we have inside, we have to fight until the last ball," Alcaraz said in an on-court interview.

NEW YORK — Carlos Alcaraz and Frances Tiafoe engaged in a high-level, high-energy spectacle of a back-and-forth semifinal at the US Open — no point over when it seemed to be, no ball out of reach, no angle too audacious.
NEW YORK : Spanish teenager Carlos Alcaraz ended Frances Tiafoe's dream run at the U.S. Open with a 6-7(6) 6-3 6-1 6-7(5) 6-3 win to reach his first major final, where he will face Casper Ruud with the world number one ranking on the line.
Eurosport expert John McEnroe has paid tribute to the hard work and incredible rise of Casper Ruud after he sealed his place in the final of the US Open. The 23-year-old secured a fairly comfortable victory over Karen Khachanov in their semi-final inside the Arthur Ashe Stadium to win 7-6(5) 6-2 5-7 6-2. Ad Ruud has enjoyed a breakthrough year having also reached the final of the French Open, where he eventually lost out to Rafael Nadal, and he now has the opportunity to clinch a maiden major title.
Carlos Alcaraz overcame the gutsy Frances Tiafoe in five brutal sets, 6-7(6) 6-3 6-1 6-7(5) 6-3, to reach his maiden Grand Slam final at the US Open after a classic clash. The third seed, who reached the quarter-finals of the French Open earlier in the season before losing out to Alexander Zverev, lost the opening set to the home favourite but managed to respond superbly.
The first Norwegian man to reach the final at Flushing Meadows won an extraordinary 55-shot rally to close the first-set tie break on his way to victory at Arthur Ashe Stadium. The fifth seed next faces either home hope Frances Tiafoe or third seed Carlos Alcaraz of Spain in the final. "This match is probably the biggest match for both of our careers," said Ruud, who was left humbled when he lost in straight sets to Rafa Nadal in June's Roland Garros final. "You want to take care of the opportunities you have and I was able to do that today."
