Gauff advanced to her first-ever U.S. Open semifinals on Tuesday with a 6-0, 6-2 victory against Jelena Ostapenko. She’s the first American teen to reach the semifinals since Serena Williams in 2001, ESPN reported.

Keys will go against Czech player Markéta Vondroušová during Wednesday’s quarterfinals.

Tiafoe and Shelton will compete against each other during the men’s quarterfinal match at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Tuesday. According to Reuters, the game marks the first time two Black American men will play against one another since 2008.

“It’s going to be a great atmosphere, I think, great representation for people of color, right?” Tiafoe told reporters, according to the wire outlet. “Two people of color playing in the quarterfinals, huge match on Arthur Ashe. It’s a pretty monumental moment.”

Last year, Tiafoe also made history as the first Black American man to reach the semi-finals at Flushing since 1972.

Gauff has garnered attention from fans and the press since she started competing in this year’s U.S. Open. She recently vocalized her frustration with the pace imposed by her opponent, German player Laura Siegemund. Gauff went up several times to the chair umpire and concluded the match with a win.

She has credited Venus and Serena Williams for inspiring her to advocate for herself and being unafraid to show her emotions on the court.

“I love that she always elevates herself,” Gauff said of Serena Williams during the 2022 U.S. Open Media Day, according to Insider. “Sometimes being a woman, a Black woman in the world, you settle for less. I feel like Serena taught me that, from watching her, she never settled for less. I can’t remember a moment in her career or life that she settled for less.”
