NEW YORK -- Felix Auger-Aliassime got past No. 8 Alex de Minaur 4-6, 7-6 (7), 7-5, 7-6 (4) at the US Open across 4 hours, 10 minutes on Wednesday to reach his second Grand Slam semifinal -- and second at Flushing Meadows.

The No. 25-seeded Auger-Aliassime's only other trip to the final four at a major came in New York in 2021 at age 21.

"Four years ago. It feels like more," said Auger-Aliassime, who advanced back then when Carlos Alcaraz stopped playing in the quarterfinals with an injured leg muscle. "It was a tough couple of years."

With his wins over No. 3 Alexander Zverev in the third round, No. 15 Andrey Rublev in the fourth and now de Minaur in the quarterfinals, this is the first time Auger-Aliassime has eliminated multiple ATP Top-20 players during a single major.
