Novak Djokovic charged into his 13th U.S. Open semifinal on Tuesday with a straight-sets win over Taylor Fritz, while home favorite Coco Gauff stayed on track for her first Grand Slam title.

Djokovic shrugged off ninth seed Fritz 6-1, 6-4, 6-4 to extend his dominance of American players in New York and take another step closer to a record-extending 24th men's Grand Slam title.

The 36-year-old Serbian star will appear in a record 47th major semi-final, eclipsing the mark he shared with longtime nemesis Roger Federer.
