Emma Raducanu soaked in tennis' biggest stage and then set about starring on it as she became the youngest British player to reach the quarter-finals of the US Open for more than 60 years.

Shelby Rogers had defeated world number one Ashleigh Barty in Arthur Ashe Stadium two days ago but it was a very different experience for the American here as Raducanu reeled off 11 games in a row in a 6-2 6-1 victory to book a last-eight date with Olympic champion Belinda Bencic.

Raducanu was the first woman since Jennifer Capriati in 1990 to reach at least the fourth round of her first two grand slam tournaments and she is only the third qualifier to reach the quarter-finals in New York.

It was a chastening experience for Rogers, who found herself with little energy in the tank after her big win over Barty.

"That was pretty embarrassing," said the 28-year-old. "It was a tough day at the office. Unfortunately I had to fail in front of thousands and thousands of people. So I have to live with that one."

Rogers praised Raducanu, saying: "I have watched her the last few months. She's been doing a lot of great stuff. I'm excited for her. That's the next generation of our sport, and it's in good hands."
