- Second seed too strong for Australian in 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 win
- Russia’s Daniil Medvedev awaits in semi-final
Austrian title favourite Dominic Thiem has ruthlessly ended Alex de Minaur’s US Open campaign with a crushing straight-sets quarter-final win in New York.
Thiem needed a tick over two hours to send Australia’s last hope packing with a 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 victory that further underlined the 26-year-old’s championship credentials.
