The U.S. Open fourth round continues on Monday, with top-notch performances and surprising upsets marking the tournament so far. Notably, Novak Djokovic and Coco Gauff exited early, creating openings for other players to shine. World number one Jannik Sinner aims to avoid a similar fate as he takes on American Tommy Paul.

Despite earlier doping controversy, Sinner has triumphed in previous rounds, dropping only one set. With Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz out, Sinner eyes his second Grand Slam title of the year but remains cautious of Paul, an improved opponent and great mover on court.

Meanwhile, Iga Swiatek looks to secure a second U.S. Open title when she faces Liudmila Samsonova. Matches to watch include Sinner vs. Paul and the much-anticipated women's match between Karolina Muchova and Jasmine Paolini, where Muchova aims for victory after a wrist injury kept her out for 10 months.
