Britain\u2019s Jack Draper\u2019s run at Flushing Meadows was ended by Russian eighth seed Andrey Rublev.<\/p>\n
Germany\u2019s Alexander Zverev outlasted sixth seed Jannik Sinner in a five-set marathon to set up a quarter-final clash with Carlos Alcaraz..<\/p>\n
Wimbledon champion Martketa Vodrousova will face Madison Keys in the women\u2019s last eight, but last year\u2019s runner-up Ons Jabeur bowed out 6-2 6-4 to China\u2019s Qinwen Zheng, who will play new world number one Aryna Sabalenka.<\/p>\n
Here, the PA news agency looks back at day eight at the US Open.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova moved a step closer to back-to-back grand slam titles by beating Peyton Stearns to quarter-finals.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old Czech, seeded ninth here two months after becoming the first unseeded woman to win at SW19, fell a set behind to Stearns.<\/p>\n
But the American youngster, whose powerful forehand accounted for Britain\u2019s Katie Boulter in round three, won just five more games as Vondrousova triumphed 6-7 (3) 6-3 6-2.<\/p>\n
Jack Draper\u2019s breakthrough run came to an end in the fourth round after a four-set defeat by Russian Rublev.<\/p>\n
The British number four, in the second week of a grand slam for the first time, fell 6-3 3-6 6-3 6-4<\/p>\n
But Draper\u2019s performances this week will hopefully point to an upward curve in such a promising career hindered by fitness issues.<\/p>\n
Forty and counting\u2026<\/p>\n

Women: Jessica Pegula (3), Ons Jabeur (5), Daria Kasatkina (13).Men: Jannik Sinner (6), Alex De Minaur (13).<\/p>\n
