As the 2012 U.S. Open nears a dramatic conclusion, Thursday's action is light, as women's singles competition takes the day off, giving way to two key men's quarterfinal matches.

No. 8 seed Janko Tipsarevic of Serbia will face No. 4 David Ferrer of Spain, and No.7 Juan Martin Del Potro of Argentina will look to upset No. 2 seed Novak Djokovic to fill the semifinal bracket.

Del Potro will essentially be playing his second match in as many days after downing Andy Roddick Wednesday after their round of 16 match was delayed due to rain.

In addition to men's quarterfinal action, mixed doubles will wrap up with Kveta Peschke and Marcin Matkowski pairing up against Ekaterina Makarova and Bruno Soares in the finals.

Thursday's television coverage can be found on ESPN2 from noon-6pm and 7pm - midnight eastern time.

A full schedule can be found on the U.S. Open's Official Website. There, you can also find live streaming of tournament events all day long.
