Carlos Alcaraz dazzled at the U.S. Open to make the semi-finals on Tuesday before Novak Djokovic danced his way through to book a New York showdown with the Spaniard that will mark the latest chapter in their generational rivalry, Reuters reported.
Former champion Alcaraz produced yet another entertaining display at Flushing Meadows to dismantle 20th seed Jiri Lehecka 6-4 6-2 6-4 at a sunbathed Arthur Ashe Stadium, securing his place in the last four without dropping a set this year.
"Sometimes I play a shot that I should not play in that moment but it's the way I love playing tennis," Alcaraz, who is two wins away from taking the world number one spot from Italian rival Jannik Sinner, told Sky Sports, according to Reuters.
