Jelena Jankovic came from a set down to see off Caroline Wozniacki and bag a place in the quarter-finals of the US Open.The Serbian made a stuttering start and lost the first set 6-3 but powered back to take the next two sets 6-2 6-1.
Jankovic appeared a bit sluggish early on, but was still able to secure a place in the last eight at the year's final grand slam for the third straight year.
The 23-year-old will play either Sybille Bammer or Marion Bartoli in the quarter-finals.
Jankovic also recorded her second three-set win in two career meetings with the 18-year-old Wozniacki, beating her in the second round at Wimbledon earlier this year.
Wozniacki was coming off a title at New Haven last week.
