And that just as surprisingly clear: 6: 4, 6: 4, 6: 4 it was in the end against the Canadian, who had left a 3-0 lead in round two.
Harris will now face the American Reilly Opelka, who reached the round of 16 almost as easily in a 7: 6 (5), 6: 3, 6: 4 against Nikoloz Basilashvili. The winner of the game then meets the winner between Alexander Zverev and Jannik Sinner.
Zverev had benefited from the abandonment of his opponent Jack Sock that night.
Here is the single tableau at the US Open
