Thiem into U.S. Open final
Dominic Thiem defeated Daniil Medvedev 6-2 7-6(7) 7-6(5) to reach the U.S. Open 2020 final where he will face Zverev.
"For sure (it was) the toughest straight-sets win I ever had because could have been easily completely different," said Thiem.
Thiem seized the early momentum inside the Arthur Ashe Stadium, handily carrying the first set without dropping a single first-serve point, but a double fault and a forehand error saw him hand Medvedev the break and the early lead in the second.
Thiem spent the remainder of the set playing catch up, converting on a critical break to level the score 5-5 before tMedvedev dragged it into a tiebreak.

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.

Dominic Thiem advanced was leading 7-6(6) 6-3 when Jaume Munar retired.
"I was happy with the way I was fighting, because it wasn't easy to play him," Thiem said.

"I felt I was playing good. I played a good tiebreak, which was pretty comfortable, then I'm sorry for what has happened."
