NEW YORK (Reuters) - Men's top seed Novak Djokovic and women's number two Angelique Kerber look to book berths in the last four of the U.S. Open as the quarter-finals of the year's last grand slam get underway on Tuesday.

Kerber, who nearly ended Serena Williams' long run as world number one last month in Cincinnati, tries to stay on track for a possible winner-take-all match with the American in the finals when she goes against Roberta Vinci.
