Carlos Alcaraz lives on at the Cincinnati Open before he heads to the U.S. Open later this month. The Spaniard and ATP world No. 2 had a tough match with world No. 11 Andrey Rublev in the quarterfinals at the Masters 1000 event Thursday.

World No 1 Sinner is on a run of 26 consecutive wins on hard-court surfaces and snapped his losing run against Alcaraz by winning the Wimbledon final in four sets last month.
