World number one Ashleigh Barty fell in the US Open third round after Shelby Rogers produced a superb comeback in front of a noisy New York crowd.

Wimbledon champion Barty held a 5-2 lead in the final set and twice served for the match but home favourite Rogers battled her way back into contention.

The world number 43 then came through the resulting tie-break to stun the top seed 6-2 1-6 7-6 (7-5).

She will face British teenager Emma Raducanu next.
