Fourth seed Naomi Osaka claimed a US Open semi-final spot, overpowering world number 93 Shelby Rogers in straight sets.

American Rogers, 27, had upset sixth seed Petra Kvitova in the fourth round but could not match an almost flawless performance from Japan's 2018 champion.

Although Osaka was broken once in the first set, victory never looked in doubt as she cruised to a 6-3 6-4 win.

The 22-year-old will face American 28th seed Jennifer Brady in the semi-finals.

Brady, 25, reached the last four at a Grand Slam for the first time by beating Kazakh Yulia Putintseva 6-3 6-2.
