The No.2 seed Aryna Sabalenka kept alive her hunt for the World No.1 ranking with a 6-1, 6-1 victory over Clara Burel to book her place in the 2023 US Open fourth round.

The Australian Open champion will take over the top place if she matches the performance of No.1 seed Iga Swiatek this fortnight, which means Swiatek must now win her fourth-round match against Jelena Ostapenko to keep it. Sabalenka will next face Daria Kasatkina, who advanced past Greet Minnen in straight sets.
