Tennis star Carlos Alcaraz continues to be in top form at the US Open in New York. The 19-year-old Spaniard advanced to the round of 16 thanks to a comfortable 6: 3, 6: 3, 6: 3 win against the American Jenson Brooksby.
At the last Grand Slam tournament of the year, the fourth in the world rankings had not given a sentence so far.
Co-favorite Cameron Norrie is also one lap ahead. The Brit, seeded number seven, won his third round match, which was difficult on paper, against the highly rated Dane Holger Rune in three sets (7:5, 6:4, 6:1).
In addition, two-time Wimbledon winner Petra Kvitova from the Czech Republic won against number 9 seeded Spaniard Garbine Muguruza in a tie-break thriller in the third and final set (12:10). In the round of 16, Kvitova meets American Jessica Pegula.
