2:13 a.m. local time in New York: Maria Sakkari uses her fourth match point against Bianca Andreescu and is in the quarter-finals of the US Open 2021. In the end, the 26-year-old from Athens beats herself 6: 7 after a dramatic 3:29 hours of play ( 2), 7: 6 (8), 6: 3 through. For the semi-finalist of this year's French Open, it is arguably the second biggest triumph of her career.
After her triumph at the major event in the “Big Apple” in 2019, Andreescu hung had to accept her first defeat at the US Grand Slam tournament. The Canadian was apparently severely physically impaired at the end of the game. The Greek, on the other hand, will meet the Czech Karolina Pliskova in the round of the last four, who in turn took the Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova out of the competition.
