Felix Auger-Aliassime beat 15th seed Andrey Rublev in straight sets to set up a quarter-final tie against Australia's Alex de Minaur.

The Canadian, 25, dominated the Russian 7-5 6-3 6-4 to progress to the last eight at Flushing Meadows for the first time since 2021, when he reached the semi-finals.

Rublev had been the favourite before the match, given he had beaten Auger-Aliassime in seven of the pair's previous eight matches.
