It’s past midnight in most parts of Asia, yet living rooms are lit by the glow of screens. Fans clutch mugs of strong coffee, whispering curses at missed break points while neighbors sleep.
The US Open 2025 has hit its quarterfinal stage, and the tension feels different now. No more easy matches, no safety nets. The crowd in New York can be heard through speakers, gasping at every line call. Names like Jannik Sinner, Naomi Osaka, Novak Djokovic, and Iga Świątek are still here. Each one carries pressure that cannot be shrugged off.
Quarterfinal days at Flushing Meadows are noisy before a single ball is hit. The air outside Arthur Ashe Stadium smells like grilled meat and pretzels. Children run in oversized hats, adults juggle drinks and tickets.
Once inside, the court looks like a stage ready for a play, polished and unforgiving under bright lights. Matches are split between late morning and evening slots, giving fans two waves of drama. For Asian viewers, this means sacrificing sleep. Matches start deep into the night and often finish when the sun is already climbing.
| Category | Match | Venue | Time (ET) |
| Men’s Singles | Félix Auger-Aliassime (25) vs Alex de Minaur (8) | Arthur Ashe Stadium | Day Session |
| Men’s Singles | Jannik Sinner (1) vs Lorenzo Musetti (10) | Arthur Ashe Stadium | Night Session |
| Women’s Singles | Amanda Anisimova (8) vs Iga Świątek (2) | Arthur Ashe Stadium | Day Session |
| Women’s Singles | Naomi Osaka (23) vs Karolína Muchová (11) | Arthur Ashe Stadium | Night Session |
Jannik Sinner’s battle with Lorenzo Musetti isn’t just another clash on the schedule. Two Italians fighting under the New York lights, one defending a crown, the other chasing respect. Sinner looks calm even when the score tightens, while Musetti swings like a man with nothing to lose. Their rallies stretch so long that the sound of the ball almost becomes a metronome, each hit heavier than the last.
The second men’s quarter pits Félix Auger-Aliassime against Alex de Minaur. It’s a contrast that feels almost unfair at times. Félix fires missiles from his racket, hammering lines with raw power. De Minaur answers with speed that makes people blink twice. One player will wear himself down swinging hard, the other sprinting endlessly. Whoever survives will limp into the semifinals with bruises nobody can see.
The women’s draw has its own electricity. Iga Świątek meets Amanda Anisimova, a pairing that has history and tension baked in. Świątek thrives on discipline, every point built like a brick wall. Anisimova takes the opposite path, hitting like she wants the ball to leave smoke trails. Watching them face off is like listening to two different songs play at once — and somehow they clash in rhythm.
Later, Naomi Osaka walks back into the Ashe spotlight against Karolína Muchová. Osaka’s comeback has stirred conversations everywhere, not least in Asia where her roots keep fans loyal. Muchová is stubborn, turning defense into counterpunching in ways that frustrate opponents. The match could tilt either way, and nobody dares predict the ending.

The semifinals are almost here, and the picture is starting to sharpen. On the men’s side, a Djokovic versus Alcaraz duel feels inevitable, though nothing in this sport is promised.
