A look back at day four of the US Open at Flushing Meadows features Daniil Medvedev’s trick shot, Matteo Berrettini round the net winner and more.

Andy Murray’s comeback from hip surgery came to an end in the second round after a 6-2, 6-3, 6-4 defeat to Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Johanna Konta was also a casualty, losing 2-6, 7-6 (7-5), 6-4 to world No 77 Sorana Cirstea.

Meanwhile, Serena Williams moved a step closer to a record-equalling 24th Grand Slam title with a straight-sets win over Margarita Gasparyan.
