STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOS - The issue of matches finishing late at night has been discussed at the U.S. Open but tournament director Stacey Allaster said the year's final Grand Slam has no plans to change its schedule.
Last year's champion Carlos Alcaraz beat Jannik Sinner in a five-set quarter-final that lasted more than five hours and concluded at 2:50 a.m, the latest finish in U.S. Open history. Players have faced similar issues at tour events, with Elena Rybakina saying she felt"destroyed" by the Montreal schedule after her quarter-final ended at 3 a.m. last week.
