Emma Navarro is back in the U.S. Open quarter-finals after beating Russia’s Anna Kalinskaya 6-4, 6-2 at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

The 26th seed reached the last eight in New York in 2024, when she advanced to the semi-finals. She will next face fellow American Jessica Pegula.

“It feels good to be back on Ashe. It’s been a couple years, and I missed it a ton. I love playing out here,” Navarro said.

The 25-year-old has reached her first Grand Slam quarter-final since the 2025 Australian Open. She returned to competition after an extended absence earlier this year for health reasons. Her win completed a strong day for the home crowd, following victories by Ben Shelton, Pegula and Frances Tiafoe.
