Two young stars, one women's match to relish and one men's match to endure as the US Open quarter-finals now are booked with Anisimova, Swiatek, Auger, and Aliassime marching on!

A stellar performance from Amanda Anisimova propelled her into the semi-finals of the U.S. Open last night, as the American teenager stunned world number one and title favorite Iga Swiatek in straight sets on Arthur Ashe Stadium.

In a rematch of their thrilling encounter in the same stage here in New York two years ago, Anisimova again served impressively throughout, this time claiming the crucial breaks of serve at 2-2 in both sets, en route to a 7-5, 6-4 victory after an hour and 55 minutes.

The 19-year-old Anisimova, who is seeded 26th, will face the veteran Estonian Kaia Kanepi for a place in her first major final. Kanepi, 37, advanced when her opponent Daria Kasatkina retired while down 7-6, 6-2.

In the men's draw, another young gun Felix Auger-Aliassime advanced to the semi-finals of the U.S. Open for the first time after a marathon match against Australian Alex de Minaur.

Auger-Aliassime, who is Canadian, beat de Minaur, Australian, 6-3, 6-4, 5-7, 4-6, 6-3 in three hours and 47 minutes. The score indicates a seesaw battle with sets and games going back and forth.

The 20-year-old Auger-Aliassime is seeded ninth and will face either Novak Djokovic or Frances Tiafoe, who play their quarter-final late today.

While both Anisimova and Auger-Aliassime are moving ahead in the winner's bracket, their upcoming opponents are yet to be determined.

It will be interesting to see if Anisimova can continue her stellar form against the experienced Kanepi, while Auger-Aliassime will face a tough challenge from Djokovic, should he win his quarter-final match later today.

The US Open continues to provide exciting matches and entertaining tennis!
