Fifth seed Ons Jabeur ended Ajla Tomljanovic’s run to reach the US Open semi-finals for the first time.

The Tunisian, runner-up at Wimbledon in July, saw off Australia’s Tomljanovic 6-4 7-6 (7-4) in a scrappy encounter.

Jabeur is the first African woman in the Open era to reach the last four in singles at Flushing Meadows.

The 28-year-old will face either home favourite Coco Gauff or France’s Caroline Garcia for a spot in her second major final.
