Djokovic Dances His Way to U.S. Open Semis

In an electrifying U.S. Open quarter-final match, Novak Djokovic reasserted his dominance over American Taylor Fritz, claiming a 6-3 7-5 3-6 6-4 victory on Tuesday. The triumph set the stage for a semi-final encounter against Carlos Alcaraz, with Djokovic celebrating the win with a dance dedicated to his daughter on her birthday.

Facing Fritz for the eleventh time, Djokovic acknowledged the close nature of the match. "It was really anybody's match. I was lucky to save crucial breakpoints," he remarked, highlighting Fritz's strong performance in the second and third sets.
