British wheelchair tennis players Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid both advanced to the quarter-finals of the men's singles competition at the US Open on Wednesday. Hewett, the second seed and a four-time US Open champion, dominated his match against Spain's Daniel Caverzaschi, winning 6-0, 6-2 and losing just two games in total. He will now face American Casey Ratzlaff in the quarter-finals, aiming to secure a spot in the semi-finals. Reid had a more challenging match against French player Stephane Houdet, which went the distance in two hours and 13 minutes. The Scottish player eventually prevailed with a score of 6-3, 5-7, 6-2. His next challenge will be against Tokito Oda, the top seed and defending champion from Japan, who has claimed the past six Grand Slam singles titles in wheelchair tennis. Both Hewett and Reid are also competing in the wheelchair doubles event, where they are aiming for their sixth US Open title as a pair. They won their first-round match on Tuesday and are set to face Oda and Argentina's Gustavo Fernandez in the semi-finals. In the quad singles competition, which is for players with disabilities affecting all four limbs, British players Andy Lapthorne and Greg Slade were eliminated in the first round. Lapthorne lost 6-2, 6-1 to top seed Niels Vink of the Netherlands, while Slade fell to Gonzalo Lazarte of Argentina with a score of 6-4, 6-2. Lapthorne remains in the quad doubles competition, however, and is now in the semi-finals with his partner, South Africa's Leon Els.
