Men’s Results and Upcoming Schedule1 of 2<\/p>\n

No. 1 Alexander Zverev def. No. 21 Luciano Darderi, 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 (3)<\/p>\n

Karen Khachanov def. No. 14 Learner Tien, 7-5, 4-6, 6-7 (6) 6-1, 6-4<\/p>\n

No. 28 Alexander Blockx def. No. 24 Francisco Cerundolo, 6-3, 4-6, 7-5, 7-5<\/p>\n

Botic van de Zandschulp def. Arthur Gea, 3-6, 6-7 (0), 7-6 (7), 7-6 (3), 6-4<\/p>\n

Karen Khachanov defeated Learner Tien in a five-set thriller to reach the US Open quarterfinal for the first time since 2022.<\/p>\n

Tien made the former top-10 player work for it with his grit and his relentless defense; however, Khachanov’s experience and forehand aggression proved superior.<\/p>\n

That was far from the only entertaining match, however.<\/p>\n

On Grandstand Court, Botic van de Zandschulp defeated Arthur Gea in 5 hours and 13 minutes.<\/p>\n

In the fourth-longest US Open match ever, van De dandschulp overcame a two-set deficit and fought a match point to pull off the unlikely win.<\/p>\n

It’s just the second time the 30-year-old has reached a Grand Slam quarterfinal, after reaching the 2021 US Open quarterfinal as a qualifier.<\/p>\n

The quarterfinals begin Tuesday on ESPN, with all matches also being available on ESPN Unlimited.<\/p>\n

Below, you can find Tuesday’s schedule:<\/p>\n

Frances Tiafoe (11) vs. Alex Michelsen <\/p>\n

Carlos Alcaraz (2) vs. Ben Shelton (8)<\/p>\n

Match of the Day: Carlos Alcaraz (2) vs. Ben Shelton (8)<\/p>\n

Ben Shelton put it perfectly.<\/p>\n

“It’s going to be fireworks,” the 23-year-old said<\/a>, previewing his highly anticipated quarterfinal clash with Carlos Alcaraz.<\/p>\n

Shelton enters on the heels of a dominant straight-set win over Stefanos Tsitsipas.<\/p>\n

The top-ranked American hit 12 aces and won 84 percent of first-serve points.<\/p>\n

But the real difference maker was his consistency. Shelton committed just 17 unforced errors.<\/p>\n

Like Shelton, Alcaraz is also coming off his most dominant win of the tournament.<\/p>\n

In what was supposed to be his toughest challenge yet, the defending champion dispatched Tommy Paul in three sets.<\/p>\n

Alcaraz eased all concerns about rust following his four-month absence due to injury, displaying his blistering forehand throughout the match.<\/p>\n

Alcaraz has won 18 consecutive major matches and enters this quarterfinal duel as the overwhelming favorite.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ben Shelton is 0-17 all-time against top-three-ranked players.<\/p>\n

That being said, Shelton is in the form of his life and has significantly improved his return game since these two faced off at the 2025 French Open.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, he’s well-equipped for the physicality this match will likely require.<\/p>\n

If Shelton can consistently hit his first serve and maintain an aggressive baseline game, he has the potential to score a massive upset.<\/p>\n
