NEW YORK (Reuters) - The stars and stripes prevailed at the U.S. Open on Tuesday as Americans Taylor Fritz and Emma Navarro advanced to their first ever Grand Slam semi-finals under sunny skies on the Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Fritz, the 12th seed, denied world number four Alexander Zverev another shot at a first major with a 7-6(2) 3-6 6-4 7-6(3) triumph just two months after dispatching the big German in the fourth round at Wimbledon.
