Match schedule for Wednesday, September 9 at the 2026 US Open: Zverev, at night
The US Open is now entering its final phase, and this Wednesday, September 9, the last day of the quarter-finals will take place, both in the men's and women's draws. After this day, only the semifinals and finals of the last Grand Slam of the season will remain, but before that, there will be four matches, all on Arthur Ashe Court, promising excitement and spectacle.
The day will start at 11:30 AM in New York, 5:30 PM in Spain with the match between Qinwen Zheng and Elena Rybakina. The Chinese player has risen from the ashes after a year heavily marked by her elbow surgery, having navigated through the qualifying rounds and coming back from two 5-0 deficits against Madison Keys and Iga Swiatek. Meanwhile, the Kazakh continues to take steps toward becoming number one and winning her third Grand Slam of her career.
Once this match ends, it will be the turn of what many consider the match of the day: Mirra Andreva vs Coco Gauff. Both are in spectacular form. The French Open champion is playing her best tennis on hard courts, while the recent winner of the WTA 1000 Cincinnati arrives at this match without losing a single set.

There will be three matches in the day session and one in the night session on Wednesday, September 9, at the US Open
The day session will feature one more match, and it will be from the men's draw. Not before 2:00 PM in New York, not before 8:00 PM in Spain, Karen Khachanov and Alexander Blockx will take to the court to fight for a spot in the semifinals. No one expected to see these two big servers in such advanced rounds, but both will have a historic opportunity.
The day will conclude in the night session, not before 7:30 PM local time (not before 1:30 AM on Friday, September 9, in Spain), with the number one seed, Alexander Zverev, facing another sensation of the US Open, Botic van de Zandschulp. The German is the clear favorite after finding his form in the last rounds. However, the Dutch player already knows what it’s like to defeat Carlos Alcaraz in this tournament, specifically in 2024, as well as Rafa Nadal in his last match as a professional tennis player.
