Top seed Carlos Alcaraz will face his toughest test yet at the U.S. Open when he battles Alexander Zverev in quarter-final action on Wednesday while Aryna Sabalenka will have to withstand the firepower of China's Zheng Qinwen to advance.

Defending champion and top seed Alcaraz has dropped just one set through his first four matches in New York but may need to dig deeper to dispatch Zverev when they close out the evening session at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

The other men's quarter-final will be an all-Russian affair as third seed Daniil Medvedev faces good friend Andrey Rublev, who is godfather to the 2021 U.S. Open champion's young daughter. Second seed Sabalenka, who will take over the women's world number one ranking from Iga Swiatek next week, will also have her hands full against Zheng, the 23rd seed who upset Ons Jabeur in the previous round.
