Gael Monfils and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will give the US Open mens quarterfinal round a French flavor, as both won their respective fourth-round matches Sunday.Monfils swept Marcos Baghdatis 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 to improve to 18-2 in matches he has played since a first-round loss at Wimbledon.That stretch includes the highest-level tournament title of his career at the Citi Open in Washington, D.C., in July.Three days after his 30th birthday, there were still classic Monfils moments in this one, including an attempt to tie his shoe in the middle of a point.But he has yet to drop at set at this tournament.The 31-year-old Baghdatis hadnt reached a Grand Slam round of 16 since the 2009 Australian Open.Over at Louis Armstrong Stadium, Tsonga beat American Jack Sock in four sets to reach the quarterfinals for the second straight year.After failing to covert one match point in the third-set tiebreaker, the ninth-seeded Tsonga dominated the fourth for the 6-3, 6-3, 6-7 (7), 6-2 victory Sunday.Tsonga now plays No. 1 Novak Djokovic, who had his right elbow treated by a trainer early in the third set of his 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 victory over Kyle Edmund of Britain.Djokovic was finally forced to play another full match after competing for a total of 31 minutes over the preceding five days because of injuries to his opponents in the second and third rounds.?And while Djokovic looked quite good for the first two sets and at the very end, there was that interlude that included the medical visit.Ahead 2-0 in the last set, Djokovic got broken, starting a stretch of three games in a row for the 84th-ranked Edmund. Djokovic had his elbow massaged at a changeover; a trainer worked on his right arm in the first round.Sock, the last man from the United States left in the draw, was trying to reach his first major quarterfinal.No American man has made the last eight at the U.S. Open since 2011.The 26th-seeded Sock upset 2014 U.S. Open champ Marin Cilic in the third round, never facing a break point.But on Sunday, he had just five aces and was broken six times.The US Open is the only major at which Tsonga, the 2008 Australian Open runner-up, has not reached at least the semifinals.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.?
