Richard Gasquet staved off a storming fightback from David Ferrer to book his place in a first-ever US Open semi-final at Flushing Meadows.
Gasquet said afterwards: "I played a great match at the start despite the wind in the stadium. But David is a great fighter and I was a little tired after a big match with Raonic. "I got the break in the final set and it's an amazing feeling to be in the semi-finals. I have played a lot of five sets in my career but I still needed to play big to get the victory."
