Canadian Gabriel Diallo bows out of U.S. Open following 4-set loss to American Paul

Gabriel Diallo's run at the U.S. Open is over.

The 22-year-old from Montreal lost 6-7 (5), 6-3, 6-1, 7-6 (3)to No. 14 seed Tommy Paul of the United States in the third round of the Grand Slam tennis tournament.

Diallo, ranked 143rd in the world entering the tournament, qualified for only his second main draw at a major.

In women's doubles, defending U.S. Open champions Gabriela Dabrowski of Ottawa and Erin Routliffe of New Zealand advanced to the third round.

The No. 1 seeds defeated American Catherine Harrison and Poland's Alicja Rosolska 7-5, 6-4, winning the match in 96 minutes.

Stepping on court less than 15 hours after Djokovic's loss to Alexei Popyrin, and two days after Alcaraz's loss to Botic van de Zandschulp, Sinner was as dominant as can be in every facet of the sport. With 23-time major champion Serena Williams watching from an Ashe suite, Sinner
