Jack Draper v Alex de Minaur LIVE: Latest US Open tennis scores and updates

There will be an American in the men’s final of the US Open for the first time since 2006 after Frances Tiafoe set up a blockbuster of a semi-final against Taylor Fritz.

Hours after Fritz disposed of fourth seed Alexander Zverev in the quarter-final, Tiafoe followed suit by beating an injured Grigor Dimitrov 6-3 6-7 (5) 6-3 4-1.

It was not the way Tiafoe would have wanted to win as 34-year-old Dimitrov sustained an injury at the end of the third set.

Earlier in the tournament Alex de Minaur came up against another Brit in Dan Evans. Here’s how that match went down:

Jack Draper’s opponent Alex de Minaur says he is sometimes treated as an “honourary Brit”.

The Australian is the boyfriend of British number one Katie Boulter, but enjoyed taking out Dan Evans in round three.

Asked if he was almost British, he replied: “Depends on the day, depends who I’m playing, as well. But yeah, at times. At Wimbledon I was.”

Jack Draper is daring to dream big in New York and is not ready to stop at the quarter-finals, where he meets Alex de Minaur.

By thrashing Tomas Machac on Monday, Draper became the first British man to reach the last eight since Andy Murray in 2016.

He has yet to drop a set in his opening four matches, with his form echoing that of fellow Briton Emma Raducanu, who claimed the US Open title in 2021.

Speaking on court after his fourth round win Jack Draper said: “I thought the last few times we played was a really decent battle. He was maybe a little off his best.

“I lost last year in the same round so it is nice to come back and go one better.

“I just need to keep going; I love playing here in New York, and I will just go through it again, I love playing on these big stages, I look forward to coming out again on Wednesday.”

Jack Draper booked his place in a first career grand slam quarter-final as he demolished Tomas Machac in the US Open fourth round.

Draper has always loved playing in New York, where the fast courts help his style, and he will now be dreaming big, having not dropped a set in his opening four matches.

His form is bringing back memories of Emma Raducanu, who famously flew under the radar to win the tournament in 2021, and Draper will be hoping to emulate her in the next week.

The draw has opened up for those still in contention, with high seeds Novak Djokovic, Andrey Rublev and Casper Ruud all making early exits.

But De Minaur has got the better of Draper in all three previous meetings between the two players, including earlier this year at Acapulco on the same surface, where Draper retired in the third set at 4-0 down.
