Evans blasted organizers for playing him first on limited rest after a rain-delayed match on Thursday while his 38-year-old Swiss rival, a 20-time Slam champion, rested after playing Wednesday under the roof at Arthur Ashe Stadium. The 37-year-old American, 6 times a US Open champion, has been a runner-up in 3 of the past 5 Slams, falling to Naomi Osaka in last year's US Open final.

It was the first victory over a top 10 foe in 12 tries for De Minaur, who squandered a two-set lead over 2014 US Open winner Marin Cilic in last year's Open third round. Pliskova will play British 16th seed Johanna Konta for a quarterfinal spot while Barty, a possible Williams quarterfinal foe, next meets Chinese 18th seed Wang Qiang.
