Norwegian Casper Rudd reached his first US Open semi-final with a scintillating win over Italian Matteo Berrettini on Arthur Ashe Stadium.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Fifth seed Rudd won 6-1 6-4 7-6 (7-4) against 13th seed Berrettini.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Victory lifts the 23-year-old to number two in the world rankings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ruud, who reached this year’s French Open final, will take the top spot if he wins his semi-final against either Nick Kyrgios or Karen Khachanov, who play each other later on Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the roof Rudd got off to an electric start, taking the first set with ease and going up 5-1 in the second.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, after an hour of one-way traffic, the 2019 semi-finalist fought back to 4-5 before Rudd scraped through to lead by two sets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Berrettini, playing in his fifth consecutive Grand Slam quarter-final, broke early in the third set but failed to convert two set points at 5-2.<\/span><\/p>\n

And Ruud broke back before forcing a tie-break, which he won in composed style to reach his second Grand Slam semi-final.<\/span><\/p>\n

More to follow. <\/strong><\/p>\n
