China's Zhang Shuai and Mate Pavic of Croatia claimed a victory over Japan's Ena Shibahara and Croatian Franko Skugor in the mixed doubles quarterfinals at the US Open on Monday.

Zhang and Pavic sealed the first set 7-6 (5), but lost the second 6-4. The pair then held their nerves to take the deciding third set 10-3.

The No. 2 seeds will face the Belgian-French pair of Kirsten Flipkens and Edouard Roger-Vasselin in the semifinals.

Earlier in the day, Zhang and Marta Kostyuk of Ukraine and the Chinese pair of Xu Yifan and Yang Zhaoxuan were both knocked out of the women's doubles third round.
