Thiem beats De Minaur, reaches U.S. Open semi-final
Dominic Thiem crushed Alex de Minaur 6-1 6-2 6-4 and made it into the semi-finals of the U.S. Open where he will play against Daniil Medvedev.
Thiem needed a little over two hours to record the win under the closed roof of Arthur Ashe Stadium despite being put under constant pressure by De Minaur, who is nicknamed 'Demon' and known for his never-say-die attitude and speedy court coverage.
De Minaur advanced to the net at every opportunity to disrupt Thiem's baseline game and while the plan worked initially the 27-year-old Austrian adjusted and started finding winners past his advancing opponent.
