Novak Djokovic continues his magic at the US Open by beating Taylor Fritz in the quarterfinals with a solid 6-3, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4 win. This victory extends Djokovic's unbeaten streak against Fritz to a perfect 11-0. What’s more, Djokovic has now reached a corking record of 53 Grand Slam semifinals, including tying the record with 14 appearances just at the US Open's home turf, Flushing Meadows. The tournament still waits for an American male champion since Andy Roddick's shining moment back in 2003, as the No. 4 seed Fritz bows out. Djokovic is now primed for a blockbuster showdown with the fiery Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz on Friday. The young star Alcaraz has been unstoppable, winning all his matches without dropping a single set, his latest a breezy 6-4, 6-2, 6-4 win over Jiri Lehecka. Djokovic and Alcaraz have had some sizzling encounters before. The Serbian legend leads their head-to-head battle 5-3 and has won their last two fights — the Australian Open quarterfinals earlier this year and the electric Paris Olympics final where Djokovic finally grabbed the gold medal for Serbia. The US Open men's excitement continues on Wednesday with big quarterfinal clashes. Alex de Minaur will face off against Felix Auger-Aliassime, while defending champion Jannik Sinner goes up against Lorenzo Musetti. But all eyes are on the upcoming clash of titans: Djokovic vs. Alcaraz, a battle that promises fireworks at Flushing Meadows!
