Leylah Annie Fernandez of Laval, Que., is the only Canadian left at the event.
She and American Jack Sock will play in the mixed doubles quarter-final later Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Aryna Sabalenka returned to the semifinals with a 6-1, 7-6 (4) victory over Karolina Pliskova.
Sabalenka is the only player still alive in either draw who reached the final four in Flushing Meadows last year. She lost to runner-up Leylah Fernandez in the semifinals.
The No. 6 seed from Belarus will face top-ranked Iga Swiatek or No. 8 Jessica Pegula for a spot in her first Grand Slam final.
She reached her only other major semifinal last year at Wimbledon, where Pliskova beat her before falling to Ash Barty.
Sabalenka quickly showed this matchup would be much different, racing to a 4-0 lead against the 2016 U.S. Open runner-up and wrapping up the first set in 28 minutes.
Frances Tiafoe, coming off his upset of No. 2 Rafael Nadal, faced No. 9 Andrey Rublev in one men's quarter-final Wednesday. No. 3 Carlos Alcaraz and No. 11 Jannik Sinner were to meet in the late match.
