World No. 1 Iga Swiatek, former US Open champion Daniil Medvedev, Olympic gold medalist Zheng Qinwen, and World No. 10 Alex de Minaur were among the prominent names to bow out in the quarterfinals.
All of them earned $530,000 for their efforts. Swiatek was shown the door by Jessica Pegula, who beat her 6-2, 6-4. Since winning the US Open two years ago, the Pole hasn’t advanced to the semifinals of a Major outside of the French Open.

Zheng was outplayed by Aryna Sabalenka in a rematch of their Australian Open final from January and was soundly beaten 6-1, 6-2. De Minaur went down 6-3, 7-5, 6-2 against Jack Draper.
