NEW YORK — The Latest on the U.S. Open (all times local):
2:55 p.m.
Roberta Vinci has reached her first Grand Slam semifinal at age 32.
The 43rd-ranked Italian outlasted Kristina Mladenovic 6-3, 5-7, 6-4 at the U.S. Open on Tuesday. The 22-year-old Mladenovic, who had never been past the third round at a major before this tournament, struggled with cramping on a steamy afternoon. Her fourth-round singles match didn't end until 1 a.m. Monday, then she played doubles later that day.
Vinci, meanwhile, advanced into the quarterfinal without taking the court Sunday, when 25th-seeded Eugene Bouchard withdrew after sustaining a concussion when she slipped and fell in the locker room two days earlier.
