New York - South Africa's Kevin Anderson has reached the US Open last 16 after beating Croatia's Borna Coric 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 in their third round clash.
Anderson will next face Italy's Paolo Lorenzi for a spot in the quarter-finals.
Anderson will be the favourite to beat world No 40 Lorenzi, with the South African boasting a 3-0 head-to-head record against the Italian.
