Alcaraz v Djokovic: two contrasting careers | Email Katy

In the girls’ singles, the defending champion Mika Stojsavljevic and Hannah Klugman have been unable to set up an all-British final. Stojsavljevic has just lost in three sets, after Klugman’s straight-sets defeat earlier. In the quad singles, Andy Lapthorne went out in the last four, while in the wheelchair men’s singles, Alfie Hewett has just been edged out 7-5 in a third set by Argentina’s Gustavo Fernandez. Hewett will have the chance to get his revenge against Fernandez later in the final of the men’s doubles.

There have been plenty of matches already today. Taylor Townsend’s eventful US Open – including unwittingly getting involved in that row with Jelena Ostapenko and then her last-16 exit in the singles after holding eight match points against Barbora Krejcikova – has ended with defeat in the women’s doubles final. The American, along with her Czech partner Katerina Siniakova, who were the top seeds, lost 6-4, 6-4 to Canada’s Gabriela Dabrowski and New Zealand’s Erin Routliffe. For Dabrowski and Routliffe, it’s their second US Open doubles title in three years.
