NEW YORK: This was a match that would not end. Should not end, one might say. Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, two of the brightest young stars of men’s tennis, traded shots of the highest quality and countless momentum swings across five sterling sets for 5 hours, 15 minutes until Alcaraz finally won the last point at 2:50a.m.
Frances Tiafoe of the United States defeated Andrey Rublev in straight sets to power into the semi-finals of the US Open on Wednesday. Tiafoe, aiming to become the first African-American man to win the US Open since Arthur Ashe in 1968, put on a scintillating performance to defeat Russian ninth seed Rublev 7-6 (7/3), 7-6 (7/0), 6-4 in 2hr 36min.

The Russian Anti-Doping Agency's (RUSADA) investigation into Olympic figure skater Kamila Valieva's positive test for the banned substance trimetazidine is reaching "the final stage", the agency has said.
South African Wayne Ferreira, a former top six player who made the quarter-finals himself in New York in 1992, has been Tiafoe's coach since 2020. He admitted, however, that when they started their collaboration, he wasn't immediately impressed. "Food intake was terrible at the beginning. The effort on the practices and on the court wasn't good enough," Ferreira said Wednesday. "He liked a lot of candy and chocolates and cookies. He'd eat at unusual times. He missed breakfast a lot...he was, in my opinion, not really professional enough."

It was another superb giant-killing performance from the 24-year-old Tiafoe, who eliminated Spanish legend Rafael Nadal in the fourth round on Monday.
