No. 20 Sam Querrey lost in the fourth round to No. 25 Stanislas Wawrinka on Tuesday, joining the likes of Andy Roddick, John Isner and Mardy Fish on the sidelines.
Wawrinka won 7-6 (9), 6-7 (5), 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 in a thriller at Arthur Ashe Stadium that lasted 4 hours, 28 minutes. It's Wawrinka's best showing ever at a Grand Slam in 23 tries. He joins Roger Federer as the second Swiss player in the quarterfinals.
Neither player served particularly well. Querrey was just 52 percent on his first-serve attempts, Wawrinka 53 percent.
Earlier, Mikhail Youzhny briefly slowed Spain's march through the U.S. Open bracket.
The 12th-seeded Russian beat Tommy Robredo, the lowest-ranked man left in the draw, 7-5, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4 on Tuesday to advance to the quarterfinals. The 41st-ranked Robredo was one of a record six Spanish men to reach the fourth round at Flushing Meadows.
Two will make the quarters: No. 1 Rafael Nadal faces 23rd-seeded Feliciano Lopez and eighth-seeded Fernando Verdasco takes on No. 10 David Ferrer in a pair of all-Spanish matchups later Tuesday.
