Johanna Konta taking it match by match

Great Britain's Johanna Konta vows to take it match by match as she looks ahead to her fourth-round clash with Petra Kvitova at the US Open.

Johanna Konta has refused to look too far ahead as she prepares to face Petra Kvitova in the fourth round of the US Open on Monday.

The 24-year-old entered the Grand Slam in the first qualifying round and has progressed past the likes of Garbine Muguruza and Andrea Petkovic to make it to this stage of a major for the first time.

Konta was asked whether she could have envisaged making this stage when she started the qualification progress, but the Brit has said that her plan was always to take it match by match.

"I was just thinking about that match, to be honest. Every match I have gone on I haven't looked back or forward. It's just about that opponent and those circumstances that will arise in that specific match and just trying to deal with that the best as possible," Konta told reporters.

Konta has also recently brought words of praise from Andy Murray.
