Duong controlled the early stages of the match, taking the first game 11-7 and putting himself in prime position to win in Game 2. The 19-year-old held two match points at 10-8, but Sock refused to go down, digging deep to save both match points and force a decider with a 12-10 win.
With momentum on his side, Sock dominated Game 3, using his aggressive shot-making and court coverage to pull away for an 11-5 victory.
Quarterfinals Showdown Awaits
With the win, Sock improves to 4-0 all-time against Duong and continues his strong form in Cape Coral. He now awaits the winner of Max Freeman vs. George Rangelov, with a spot in the semifinals on the line.
