    Swiss 11th seed Belinda Bencic is performing well. She's moved 4-1 up in the second.

    Iga Swiatek has work to do. Has the frustration of losing that tie-break knocked her a bit? It seems that way.

    Evans 3-6 4-6 3-6 Medvedev

    Britain's Dan Evans said he "got a good, healthy lesson" after being outclassed by second seed Daniil Medvedev in the last 16.

    Evans lost 6-3 6-4 6-3 to the Russian 2019 runner-up, who is yet to drop a set at Flushing Meadows.

    "He was a different level to me today," Evans, 31, said.

    Asked what he had learned from the encounter, the Briton replied with a smile: "You're looking at the draw hoping he's nowhere near me for the rest of my days."

    Former world number five Daniela Hantuchova believes Emma Raducanu will win a Grand Slam title in her career and be ranked inside the top five "within a year".

    "More people are starting to believe Emma is Grand Slam material - that's how good she is already," Hantuchova said on Amazon Prime.

    "I hope Coco Gauff is watching what Emma is doing because she is on another level as far as everything goes.

    "If she stays healthy and has the right people around here she can be top five within a year. I don't think I'm exaggerating there. She is the full package."

    It's a pretty big day for British teenager Emma Raducanu.

    She faces home favourite Shelby Rogers on Arthur Ashe Stadium - the world's biggest court - in the last 16.

    It's her first overseas Grand Slam and she hasn't dropped a set in New York.

    She thrashed Spain's Sara Sorribes Tormo in the third round but this could be her biggest test yet.

    World number 150 Raducanu will face the last remaining American woman in the cavernous 24,000-capacity main court.

    Rogers also knocked out top seed Ashleigh Barty on the weekend.

    Bencic 7-6 (14-12) Swiatek

    Wow! Belinda Bencic has taken the first set after a gruelling tie-break which finished 14-12 in her favour.

    She needed five set points - and denied Iga Swiatek with four of her own - to take the longest set to be played at the US Open so far.

    Understandably, Swiatek is hugely frustrated. Still all to play for
