listless performance unfortunately. Botic was immense but Alcarez needs a break.

Looks like its Sinner's slam to lose now.

I notice that once again Djokovic found himself on the opposite side of the draw to Sinner/Alcaraz. Looks like him v Sinner in the Final already.

The draw has opened up for Draper though who certainly has a chance of going deep now he doesn't face Alcaraz next.

Three slams in a row.

Seems someone badly wants him in the finals

No please

Shelton v Tiafoe is going the distance.

Think Shelton has top 4 potential, and on the right day can take down Djoker.

Well he lost it

The King is Dead

Long live the King

Sinner's tournament to bring home now.

Big Foe pulled out a sulrisingly good victory in 4.

Two matches now that I didn't think he would win.

With both Djokovic and Alacaraz out, Zverev now has an excellent chance to win. Would say he is at least joint favorite with Sinner and Medvedev.

Yeah Sinner solid betting fav but he is in same quarter as Medvedev so that's an issue, Zverev really should be coming through his side of the draw for the final.

Pretty messy from Gauff earlier, it does feel like Saba and Iga are clear of everyone but a lot of good players still left.

Medvedev feels like an afterthought tbh, may surprise is all.

Pulling for Sinner though.

Coco was a mess, 19 DFs are unacceptable.

And Iga and Sabalenka are clearly the favorites and would be shocked if they're not in the finals.

Impressive stuff from Draper who still hasn’t lost a set (or even come close to) so far. Saying that, Machac was abysmal. Will be an Aussie next, neither of whom he is yet to beat. But on this form (and with a likely higher ceiling than either De Minaur or Thompson) he must have a great chance.

Not sure how Machac beat Korda on this form and the draw has been kind for Jack with Carlos out but he has handled business with minimal fuss.

He's going to have similar off court temptations that Emma has due to his looks (model also) but I think he will have a much better career, he's had some nice results over the years just injuries and going deep in slams is the issue.

Whoever is the winner of Zheng vs Sabalenka will win the women's title...

I thought Iga was pretty good last few matches. Samsonova is an inferior Saba/Ryb the type of player who can bomb Iga of court if they get hot but Iga handled business nicely tonight.

For what its worth Muchova is solid 3rd fav betting wise after Saba/Iga so no not a cert its those 2!

Its a good last 8,,,Saba, Iga, Muchova, Pegula,, Zhang, Badosa, Zheng,, Navarro and Haddad tbf.
