Jannik Sinner kept his US Open title defense on track Saturday as Iga Swiatek struggled through to the last 16 and home favorite Coco Gauff booked a blockbuster clash with Naomi Osaka.

NEW YORK (AFP) -

Sinner rallied from a set down to beat Canadian 27th seed Denis Shapovalov 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 and is trying to become the first man to retain the title in New York since Roger Federer in 2008.

"I was in a very difficult moment," said Sinner. "The scoreline was a bit against me today, but I just tried to stay there mentally."
