An Australian is guaranteed to be in the quarter-finals of the US Open as Alex de Minaur and Jordan Thompson battle in the fourth round.

De Minaur will be aiming for his fourth career quarter-final and third of the season – but he has never reached a semi-final.

Thompson goes into the match as the underdog but has been in career-best form in 2024, particularly on North American hard courts.
