The US Open quarter-final between Taylor Fritz and Novak Djokovic will begin not before 8 p.m. following Marketa Vondrousova’s withdrawal.
Vondrousova was scheduled to play Aryna Sabalenka at 7 p.m. in the first match of the evening session inside Arthur Ashe Stadium. Instead, Fritz and Djokovic will begin the session.
Djokovic takes a 10-0 Lexus ATP Head2Head series lead into the pair’s clash. Fourth-seeded Fritz reached the final last year.
In the first quarter-final earlier in the day, Carlos Alcaraz ousted Jiri Lehecka 6-4, 6-2, 6-4. The Spaniard will face Fritz or Djokovic in the semi-finals.
