Emma Raducanu meets Elena Rybakina in a blockbuster clash in the third round of the US Open on Friday, with Cameron Norrie taking on Novak Djokovic overnight.

Raducanu, famously a champion at Flushing Meadows in 2021, takes on Rybakina at Louis Armstrong Stadium, live on Sky Sports Tennis at 4pm.

Raducanu swept aside qualifier Janice Tjen to reach the third round having already handily beaten another qualifier, Ena Shibahara. Next, she will have a significant test against a former Wimbledon champion in Rybakina.

At midnight at Arthur Ashe Stadium, Britain’s Cameron Norrie will face Novak Djokovic, who is seeking to make more history at the US Open this year as he hunts a record 25th Grand Slam title.

Spanish star, and No 2 seed this year, Carlos Alcaraz will be in action against Luciano Darderi from 4.30pm at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

World No 1 Aryna Sabalenka will play Canadian hope Leylah Fernandez at midnight at Louis Armstrong Stadium.

Following that, America’s Taylor Fritz, a finalist last year, meets Switzerland’s Jerome Kym.
