The 2026 US Open is reaching its conclusion as the final tennis major of the 2026 season, and the bracket is shaping up to produce some excellent matchups. This year’s men’s draw got off to a shocking start with Novak Djokovic’s first-round upset loss to Mariano Navone. Add in the absence of world No. 1 Janik Sinner, who missed the tournament with a knee injury, and it feels like a Cinderella run is possible for any player, including the three Americans who crashed the final-8.
The women’s draw Chalk has held so far in the women’s draw. The top five seeds are all still available halfway through play in the quarterfinals. It looked like top-seeded Aryna Sabalenka could go down against No. 6 Linda Nosková, but Sabalenka rallied to win the third set tiebreaker to keep her dreams of winning her first major of 2026 alive.
No American man has won a tennis major since Andy Roddick won the 2004 US Open. There will be at least one American in the final four of the men’s draw after Frances Tiafoe outlasted Alex Michelsen in a five-set thriller after he dropped the first two sets. Tiafoe now faces the winner of favorite Carlos Alcaraz vs. American Ben Shelton.
Here’s every score of the U.S. Open quarterfinals so far.
