Elena Rybakina delivered a clinical performance in her straight-set victory over Naomi Osaka.
She claimed the opening set in just 21 minutes, dominating with her first serve and powerful baseline groundstrokes while capitalizing on Osaka’s early errors.
Osaka found her rhythm in the second set and held serve comfortably until two double faults at 3-3 led to a crucial service break.
That proved to be the decisive moment, as Osaka was unable to apply any real pressure when Rybakina was serving for the match.
Rybakina won 87 percent of points on her first serve while hitting 29 winners.
Qinwen Zheng continued her Cinderella run, defeating Iga Swiatek in straight sets to reach the US Open quarterfinal.
Swiatek could not have imagined a better start.
The six-time major champion raced off to a 5-0 first-set lead against Qinwen Zheng, well positioned for another routine victory.
However, for the second consecutive match, Zheng overcame a 5-0 deficit, stunning Swiatek by winning seven straight games to claim the opening set.
In the second set, Swiatek regained her rhythm before Zheng ultimately broke to take a 4-2 lead.
As Swiatek was serving to stay in the match, Zheng broke once more to seal the massive upset.
In the final women’s match of the day, Coco Gauff maintained her excellent form.
The two-time major champion defeated Iva Jovic in straight sets to reach her third major quarterfinal this season.
Gauff came out the gates tentative, ultimately losing her first service game.
The 23-year-old American then rattled off the next six games to win the set in dominant fashion.
While Jovic played a much cleaner second set, Gauff’s athleticism and return skills were simply too much to overcome.
Gauff has now won 10 consecutive matches without losing a set.

Match of the Day: Jessica Pegula (3) vs. Emma Navarro (26)
Jessica Pegula is seeking to reach the US Open semifinal for the third consecutive year.
The top-ranked American has played an impressive tournament, losing just one set while dominating on her first serve.
Emma Navarro, meanwhile, is seeking to reach her second career US Open semifinal.
Since reaching the 2024 US Open semifinal, Navarro has struggled, reaching the quarterfinal round just once in her previous seven appearances.
