The quarterfinals begin on Tuesday at the US Open, with two matches scheduled for the day session and two others for the night session.

Kicking off the action at 5:30 PM French time, Jessica Pegula will take on Barbora Krejcikova. The American, still without dropping a single set in this tournament, continues to impress. Krejcikova, on the other hand, will be aiming for her first semifinal in New York after her miraculous victory against Taylor Townsend.

Next, Carlos Alcaraz and Jiri Lehecka will step onto Arthur Ashe Stadium. The two players will face off for the third time this season, with one win each.

Starting at 1:00 AM French time, defending champion Aryna Sabalenka will be up against Marketa Vondrousova. This match will be followed by the clash between Novak Djokovic and Taylor Fritz. Facing last year's finalist, the Serb is the favorite with his record of 10 wins in as many encounters.

Is Fritz going to let an old man own him? I think Fritz chokes when playing top dogs. Even old, past their prime ones.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
