Roger Federer will attempt to punch his ticket to the U.S. Open semifinals for the 10th time in the past 12 years Wednesday night when he takes on Richard Gasquet. It's the 17th career meeting between the pair with Federer holding a clear 14-2 edge.

"I gave myself that extra week to be in the gym, be on the practice courts. Thankfully it was nice and hot in Switzerland that time around. We also had around 90 degrees as I was practicing," Federer said. "So I feel like I could work on my game a little bit, I could rest up as well. ...
