Image: Marin Cilic made a good start to his quarter-final against sixth seed Tomas Berdych, taking the opening set 6-2 in 28 minutes
Image: And the 14th-seeded Croat continued to fire off the winners from left, right and centre
Image: Berdych was struggling with his game
Image: The Czech lost the second set 6-4 and became embroiled in an argument with the umpire after surrendering a 3-0 lead in the third
Image: Cilic, who served a four-month doping ban last year, fired 19 aces on the way to completing a 6-2 6-4 7-6 (7/5) victory
Image: Cilic is into the semi-final of a grand slam for the second time in his career. He also reached the last four of the Australian Open in 2010
Image: Gwen Stefani was in attendance for the night session at Flushing Meadows to watch Roger Federer take on Gael Monfils. No doubt, she's a big tennis fan
Image: Monfils, the 20th seed, threatened a huge quarter-final shock when he won the opening two sets
Image: But second seed Federer hit back to win the third set and then saved two match points in the fourth before forcing a decider
Image: And Federer - a five-time champion in New York - eventually came through 4-6 3-6 6-4 7-5 6-2 to book a semi-final date with Cilic
