US Open semi-finals lead a quiet day elsewhere

Both U.S. Open singles draws reach the semi-final stage in New York, with smaller events elsewhere on the schedule.

New York carries the day. Both U.S. Open singles draws are at the semi-final stage. One men's semi-final is an afternoon start in New York; the evening session carries the rest.

Viewers in the UK and Ireland have Sky Sports Tennis, plus NOW and Sky Go.

Elsewhere the day is small. Challenger events are being played on hard courts at Cassis, Istanbul and Phan Thiet, and on clay at Genoa, Seville and Tulln, with a further hard-court event in Shanghai. The WTA's smaller events are on clay at Antalya and Montreux and on hard courts at Barranquilla. Matches at Antalya and Cassis are already under way; Montreux comes later.
