The highlight of the fifth day was Great Britain's Laura Robson and her second upset in as many matches at Flushing Meadows. The 18-year-old beat former World No 1 and three-time US Open champion Kim Clijsters in the second round and followed that with a 6-4, 6-7, 6-2 win over ninth seed Li Na of China. Her reward is to face defending champion and seventh seed Samantha Stosur of Australia for a place in the quarter final. Robson, who has been on a high since winning silver at the London Olympics 2012, is the first British woman to reach the fourth round of a Grand Slam tournament in 14 years.
