US Open day nine: Leylah Fernandez into last four after overcoming another seed

:Headline: US Open day nine: Leylah Fernandez into last four after overcoming another seed:
The runs of Botic van de Zandschulp and Carlos Alcaraz came to an end.
Sports Mole

Canadian teenager Leylah Fernandez continued her stunning giant-killing run at the US Open with victory over Elina Svitolina to reach her first grand slam semi-final.

Daniil Medvedev ended the run of qualifier Botic van de Zandschulp to reach the last four for a third straight year.

But 18-year-old Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz's run ended after he retired injured a set down to Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Here, the PA news agency looks back at day nine at Flushing Meadows.

Syrup is the secret

Del Potro in the house

There are few more popular – or unlucky – players in tennis than 2009 US Open champion Juan Martin Del Potro. The Argentinian has undergone four knee operations since fracturing his kneecap at Queen's Club in 2019 but is preparing for another comeback.

Wedding bells for Halep

Former Wimbledon champion Halep headed home to Romania after losing in the fourth round to Elina Svitolina and revealed to reporters at the airport that she is marrying businessman boyfriend Toni Iuruc next week.

Brit watch

Joe Salisbury and America's Rajeev Ram saved four match points against Australian duo Matt Ebden and Max Purcell to reach the men's doubles semi-finals in dramatic fashion. They were later joined by Jamie Murray and his Brazilian partner Bruno Soares. Salisbury is also in the last four of the mixed doubles with Desirae Krawczyk.
