Former Indian captain MS Dhoni has made an appearance at the 2023 US Open game. He was seen watching the quarterfinal clash between Carlos Alcarez and Alexander Zverev.
The US Open official broadcaster has shared a snippet from Alcarez vs Zverev video where the Chennai Super Kings skipper was seen enjoying the contest from the stands.

In a thrilling contest World number one Alcaraz finished off a drained Zverev 6-3 6-2 6-4 on Wednesday to move into the US Open semi-finals where he will take on Daniil Medvedev in an intriguing clash featuring the last two Flushing Meadows champions.

There were questions about how prepared Zverev would be to face the energetic Alcaraz after playing the longest match of the tournament – a near five-hour, five-set marathon in punishing conditions on Monday against Jannik Sinner.

A US Open finalist in 2020, Zverev showed up ready to fight but the tank emptied quickly, the 12th seed unable to keep pace as Alcaraz stepped on the gas to pull away for a straightforward win.

Alcaraz had only four break-point chances throughout the entire contest but made each one of them count.
