INTERVIEW: Frances Tiafoe reps Washington Commanders in special Lululemon kit for DC Open | Washington 3R
Ben Shelton and Frances Tiafoe will clash under the lights in Washington D.C.

The American men’s No. 2 and No. 3 will square off for the fourth time, with Shelton leading the series, 2-1—though Tiafoe did win their last encounter in a grueling five-setter at the US Open last year. Whoever wins that all-American quarterfinal could face an all-American semifinal against the American men’s No. 1, Taylor Fritz, who plays Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the second night match. Another American, Brandon Nakashima, is also in action, taking on Alex de Minaur.

One American and two major champions are in quarterfinal action on the women’s side in D.C.

Ten Americans started in the women’s main draw in Washington D.C., but only one remains—and she wasn’t even originally in the draw. Taylor Townsend, who made it in as a qualifier, will face Canada’s Leylah Fernandez, who took out No. 1 seed Jessica Pegula on Thursday. Meanwhile, No. 3 seed and 2022 Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina takes on No. 5 seed Magdalena Frech in the only all-seeded women’s quarterfinal, while 2021 US Open winner Emma Raducanu faces Maria Sakkari.

Alexander Bublik keeps cruising in Kitzbuhel—but his opponent today is 2-0 against him.

The Kazakh has won 15 of his last 17 matches, as well as 12 of his last 13 sets, but his opponent in the semifinals today, Botic van de Zandschulp, has won both of their previous meetings. The Dutchman has beaten some big names, too, including three huge ones in the last year alone—Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic and even Rafael Nadal. The other semifinal is an all-French clash between two Arthurs, Rinderknech and Cazaux (the latter of which is trying to reach his first ATP final).

Three of the Top 4 seeds (and the man who took out the No. 1 seed) are in the Umag semis.

That’s No. 2 seed Luciano Darderi against No. 3 seed Camilo Ugo Carabelli and No. 4 seed Damir Dzumhur against Carlos Taberner (who took out No. 1 seed Francisco Cerundolo in the second round). They’re both first-time tour-level meetings, but both pairs have history below tour-level (Darderi leads Ugo Carabelli, 4-3, while Dzumhur and Taberner are tied 1-1). Darderi is the form player, having won the title in Bastad, Sweden last week and now looking for his eighth win in a row.

Three Czechs—and maybe a fourth one—will play in the semis of the WTA event in Prague.

Top seed Linda Noskova is into her fourth straight semifinal in the Czech capital, and will try to reach the final for the second time in the last three years—she’ll play the winner of the suspended quarterfinal between China’s Wang Xinyu and Czech teenager Sara Bejlek (Wang won the first set, 6-4). Marie Bouzkova and Tereza Valentova are in the other semifinal, and it’s been a breakthrough week for 2024 Roland Garros junior champion Valentova, who’s into her very first WTA semifinal.
