Canadian teenager Leylah Fernandez continued her US Open dream run by storming into her first Grand Slam semi-final with a battling 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (7/5) win over Ukrainian fifth seed Elina Svitolina yesterday morning (Singapore time).

It was yet another upset win for Fernandez but hardly a shock considering she had already knocked out four-time Major champion Naomi Osaka in the third round and three-time Grand Slam winner Angelique Kerber in the fourth.
