Updates from the second round at Flushing MeadowsGet in touch with Daniel | Ostapenko and Townsend rowGoffin has broken back against Musetti and they’re now 4-4 in set one. On Grandstand, Rublev is giving Boyer all he can handle, forcing break points that he can’t quite convert. Oh, and Swiatek survives break point to lead Lamens 3-0, I don’t imagine this match will detain us all that long.Also a set up are Sakkari, 6-3 against Bondar; Alexandrova, 6-2 1-1 against Wang; and Kalinskaya, 6-1 1-1 against Putitnseva. Meanwhile, Swiatek breaks Lamens for 2-0, already looking monstrous; it’ll take something significant to beat her here, but both Gauff, her potential semi-final opponent, and Sabalenka, the defending champ and no 1 seed, are capable of that.

British No 1 says he is ‘growing out instead of up now’Draper working with Andy Murray’s former coachesDuring the typically chaotic media day before Wimbledon in June, Jannik Sinner and Jack Draper were working through their commitments when they briefly crossed paths in the broadcast media mixed zone. As they warmly greeted each other, Sinner looked his good friend up and down, and a smile spread across his face: “Always stronger,” he said, jokingly flexing both arms.Draper, who responded with a sheepish, embarrassed laugh, has heard such observations many times in recent months. At the same time that he has risen up the rankings over the past 15 months, transforming himself into one of the best in the world, he has become one of the most physically strong players on the ATP Tour.

1 week ago ‘I’m so driven to find a way’: Holger Rune on what it takes to beat Alcaraz and Sinner

The 22-year-old has recruited the ‘legend’ Andre Agassi on his search for grand-slam winning form before the US Open“My aim is to win as many grand slams as possible and be No 1 in the world,” Holger Rune says with cool assurance on a stinking hot day in Cincinnati. “It’s very, very clear for me and it’s always been like that since I was a child.”The 22-year-old Dane is the world No 11 and he has reached the quarter-finals of Wimbledon and, on two occasions, the French Open. As the US Open approaches, he has yet to make the last four of a grand slam but his bold ambition seems more concrete when his impressive record against the best two players in the world is remembered. Rune has played Carlos Alcaraz four times, winning twice, including a 7-6, 6-2 victory in their most recent encounter, four months ago in the final of the Barcelona Open. He has also beaten Jannik Sinner twice in their five matches against each other. Continue reading...
