Up next:

Later tonight, Carlos Alcaraz will face Stefanos Tsitsipas. The winner will face Sinner.

Tomorrow, Jasmine Paolini will face Elena Rybakina while the world No 2 Aryna Sabalenka will take on the 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva.

Casper Ruud gets a straight spot to the semi-final due to Djokovic’s injury and Alexander Zverev will take on Alex de Minaur.

It promises to be an exciting one, so make sure to join us back here. Thanks for tuning in!

What a day from tennis! Here is what went down:

The US Open champion Coco Gauff beat Ons Jabeur 4-6, 6-2, 6-3. She now faces her toughest test yet in Iga Swiatek who swatted away Marketa Vondrousova in an hour and two minutes.

And then of course, we just saw Jannik Sinner beat Grigor Dimitrov, becoming the new world No 1 as Novak Djokovic pulled out of the tournament.
