郑钦文在美国网球公开赛女单第四轮比赛中以7-5、6-3击败8号种子斯维亚特克13，职业生涯第三次晋级美网八强35。在首盘中，郑钦文克服0-5的落后局面，连胜七局完成逆转23。这是郑钦文连续第二场从0-5落后的困境中翻身，此前她在第三轮对阵22号种子凯斯时也以1-6、7-6(3)、7-5的比分胜出1。作为资格赛选手，郑钦文成为2021年埃玛·拉德卡努之后首位打入美网八强的资格赛球员1。
这场胜利对郑钦文意义重大。她此前与斯维亚特克交手，唯一的胜利来自2024年巴黎奥运会女单半决赛，当时她以2-0击败斯维亚特克，并最终夺得网球单打金牌，成为首个夺得奥运会网球单打金牌的亚洲运动员3。本次美网逆转标志着郑钦文首次在硬地赛场上战胜斯维亚特克3。郑钦文的世界排名也因此飙升至第52位5。本届美网从资格赛起步，她已收获七连胜235。下一轮郑钦文将与赛会2号种子、澳网冠军里巴基纳争夺四强席位3。
同日进行的另一场八强争夺战中，里巴基纳以6-1、6-4战胜大坂直美1。里巴基纳是2号种子，如果闯进半决赛，将成为WTA世界第一，取代萨巴伦卡1。
