Cilic, Tsonga to clash in US Open quarter-finals

Defending champion Marin Cilic and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga set-up a US Open quarter-final clash on Sunday as world number one Novak Djokovic waited to take another step closer to a 10th Grand Slam title. Cilic made the last-eight for the fourth time with a 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (7/2) 6-1 win over France's Jeremy Chardy. Cilic, the Croatian ninth seed, took his record in New York to 11 successive wins after capturing his maiden Grand Slam title in the city last year.
