Frances Tiafoe celebrates his win against Andrey Rublev in the 2022 US Open quarterfinals. Disappointment for Andrey Rublev on Wednesday meant ecstasy for Frances Tiafoe. The American backed up his shock win against Rafael Nadal in the previous round with a clinical, all-round display against the Russian, winning 7-6(3), 7-6(0), 6-4 in two hours and 35 minutes to book his place in his maiden Grand Slam semifinal at the US Open. In the third tour-level meeting between the pair, the American was clinical in a pair of tie-breaks to win the opening two sets, in which he did not carve out any break point opportunities. While some nerves crept in during the third set, Tiafoe did well to rally from 30-40 to hold for 5-3 and then held convincingly to love in his final service game to complete the win.
