Tennis: Alexei Popyrin's US Open has come to an end after losing to Tiafoe in the round of 16.
The US Open is set for its all-Aussie showdown with countrymen Alex de Minaur and Jordan Thompson squaring off on Tuesday for a spot in the quarter finals .
The pair have known each other since they were teenagers, with Thompson, 30, regularly given a compatriot five years his junior a ride to the gym and tennis courts in Sydney. Meanwhile, Thompson has been quietly enjoying his own surge having enjoyed a career-high ranking of 30 earlier this year, while he now sits at 32. He claimed his maiden ATP Tour title earlier this year in Mexico and is through to the 4th Rd in New York for the second time.
