US Open QFs: Ruud on No.1 march, Garcia wins & Khachanov springs surprise

In the latest episode of Tennis Weekly, Kim is joined by Chris to chat through all the Quarter Final action from the US Open, which saw Caroline Garcia continue her win streak to make her first Grand Slam semi final with a victory over home hope Coco Gauff.

Meanwhile, Casper Ruud is potentially one win away from becoming the world No.1 after easing past a disappointing Matteo Berrettini. He will face another somewhat surprising semi finalist in Karen Khachanov who took out many people’s tournament favourite Nick Kyrgios. 

Kim and Chris also reflect on Francis Tiafoe backing up his win over Rafa Nadal with a straight sets defeat of Andrey Rublev, and Aryna Sabalenka sorting out her serve to make her second straight US Open Semi.
