Great matches to start the round of 16, Sunday July 7, with a program already disrupted by the rain. Fortunately for the favorites, we are playing under the roof. Carlos Alcaraz, who beat Frances Tiafoe in five sets on Friday, will face Ugo Humbert, the only Frenchman on the program for the day. World number 1 Jannik Sinner will face Ben Shelton after his three-set victory over Miomir Kecmanovic. Daniil Medvedev will be in danger against Grigor Dimitrov, who beat Gaël Monfils in the third round.
In the women’s competition, Coco Gauff will face her compatriot Emma Navarro, while Jasmine Paolini, a finalist at Roland-Garros, will face another American, Madison Keys. The Italian is continuing her magnificent season and is preparing to play in her first round of 16 at Wimbledon. Finally, Emma Raducanu continues to make the London public dream. The winner of the 2021 US Open is the only British survivor of the major singles tournament. She will play for a place in the quarter-finals against New Zealander Lulu Sun (123rd), who came from qualifying and was a big surprise of this tournament.
