France Tiafoe is in action tonight

00:07 CET - American triumph in York, as Alex Michelsen sees off Tomas Martin Etcheverry in straight sets.

The world number 46 needed nearly three hours to progress, winning the encounter 7-6(6), 6-4, 6-4.

22:23 CET - The second seed in the men's draw is into the next round.

Tommy Paul pushed Carlos Alcaraz for two hours and 22 minutes, but the Spaniard has prevailed in straight sets 6-4, 6-3, 6-4, with 33 winners compared to his opponent's 18.

He needed 14 attempts to get his four break points, a stat he will want to work on as the US Open heads into the final week.

21:16 CET - It's been a bruising encounter for 2026 Wimbledon champion, Linda Noskova, but the Czech star is into the last eight at Flushing Meadows, after a three-set, 7-5, 5-7, 6-4 win over Marta Kostyuk.

The sixth seed hit fewer winners and more unforced errors than her Ukrainian opponent, but won the points that mattered, despite needing five match points to seal the game.

18:58 CET - World number one and two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka is into the US Open quarter-finals for a sixth-straight year, after swatting aside the potentially tricky test of home favourite Taylor Townsend, 6-4, 6-3.

There were seven breaks of serve in a rollercoaster opening set, and despite going 1-3 down in the second, Sabalenka raised her level to reel off five straight games, returning to the last eight.

The Belarusian must retain her title to remain as the world number one, and she will next face the winner of Linda Noskova vs Marta Kostyuk.

17:53 CET - Play is now underway at Flushing Meadows!

14:30 CET - Good afternoon and welcome back to our coverage of the US Open this Sunday! The fourth round begins in a few hours, with several really exciting clashes to look forward to.

Up first on Arthur Ashe at 17:30 CET, world number one and two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka is set to take on the home crowd when she meets charismatic American Taylor Townsend.

That is followed by what is sure to be a really entertaining encounter between men's defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and Tommy Paul - two players who are certainly going to bring some style.

The night session sees a third American of the day, Ben Shelton, clash with the resurgent Stefanos Tsitsipas, before Emma Navarro will be hoping to end the day on a high for the home crowd against Anna Kalinskaya.

Meanwhile, Linda Noskova gets proceedings underway on Louis Armstrong at 18:30 CET against the impressive Marta Kostyuk, in a rematch of their semi-final meeting during the Czech's run to the Wimbledon title earlier this year.

Former champion Daniil Medvedev then faces off against Frances Tiafoe, before Jessica Pegula continues her quest for a maiden Grand Slam title against Sorana Cirstea.

There is just one singles match on Grandstand today, as Alex Michelsen and Tomas Martin Etcheverry aim to reach their first US Open quarter-final.
