The 19-year-old dropped just two games as she blitzed Jelena Ostapenko 6-0 6-2 inside Arthur Ashe Stadium.
But she was unable to take advantage of her own handiwork as Gauff raced away with the first set in only 20 minutes.
But Gauff completed the job in an hour and eight minutes to reach the last four of her home grand slam for the first time. “Honestly, I didn’t feel comfortable the whole match, even on match point. I know the game she plays. It’s really tough against her – you can’t really be aggressive. She’s a top player and she’s had a great tournament.
Gauff knows she still has a long way to go if she is to come even close to the achievements of Williams, who won six US Opens among her 23 grand slam titles.
