American Taylor Fritz: Novak Djokovic overcame the heat and engineered a lopsided victory over top-ranked American Taylor Fritz to remain undefeated in the US Open quarterfinals.

Competing in the 34-degree heat on Arthur Ashe Stadium on Tuesday night, the 36-year-old was in no mood to relinquish his streak against Fritz, triumphing 6-1, 6-4, 6-4 to improve to 8-0 in the pair's ATP Head-to-Head series.

The Serbian, who now holds a perfect 13-0 record in quarter-finals in New York, set an Open-era men's record of 47 Grand Slam semifinal appearances, surpassing Roger Federer's mark of 46.
