Benoit Paire claimed the fifth top-10 win of his career (now 5-18) against top seed Stan Wawrinka to book his place in the semi-finals. The No.8 seed, whose previous best performance in Marseille was a second-round appearance in 2015 (l. to Wawrinka), is the last remaining Frenchman in either draw. He will face No. 4 seed Marin Cilic, the 2011 semi-finalist (l. to Soderling) and 2014 US Open champion, playing in Marseille for the first time in five years. The Croatian is playing his first semi-final of 2016 and first since winning the Moscow title last October (d. Bautista Agut). Italy’s Damiano Torella will umpire the match. In the second semi-final, No. 2 seed Tomas Berdych will meet unseeded Nick Kyrgios for the second time in their careers and in 2016, after Berdych won their third-round encounter at the Australian Open. Egypt’s Adel Mour will umpire the match. Like Cilic, Berdych is playing in Marseille for the first time since reaching the final (2013, l. to Tsonga). The Czech is playing his second semi-final of 2016 (Doha, l. to eventual champion and world No. 1 Djokovic). Like Paire, debutant Kyrgios collected his fifth career top- 10 win by beating No. 3 seed and world No. 10 Gasquet in the quarters (now 5-11). The 20-year-old also reached the semi-finals in the doubles draw w/Gabashvili, losing to Erlich & Fleming on Friday. The Israeli-British duo will face No. 2 seeds Pavic & Venus in Sunday’s final.

    THE US OPEN T O Throughout its 133-year history, the US Open has dared its entrants to dream U R I N big, to strive for excellence in each and every match, and in turn the Open has N F A O done the same. It has moved from the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills to the M USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, one of the largest public tennis facili - E N ties in the world, and plays its marquee matches in Arthur Ashe Stadium, the T largest tennis stadium in the world. Over the years, the US Open has drawn inspiration from tennis heroes such as Billie Jean King and Arthur Ashe, as well as the innumerable world-class players who have taken part in the event and, of course, from the hundreds of thousands of fans whose dedication to the sport and the F G A event have made the US Open a true sports and entertainment spectacular. In fact, more than R C O I L 700,000 fans on-site make the US Open the world’s largest-attended annual sporting event, and U I T N more than 53 million online visitors plus a global television audience share in the thrill and excite - Y D & ment each year. S Starting with Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day—the world's largest single-day, grass-roots tennis and entertainment event—straight through Finals Weekend, the US Open honors its future and its past, celebrating those who have made the tournament what it is today while also focusing on the next generation that will write tennis history well into the coming decades.
