PreambleFollowing Jack Draper’s eye-catching win against Felix Auger-Aliassime last night, there is plenty more to pique the interest of British fans at the US Open today, beginning with Dan Evans v James Duckworth from 4pm UK time.
The unseeded Duckworth is ranked No 83 and if Evans, seeded 20th, can replicate the form he showed in a straight-sets first-round win against Jiri Vesely, he should not have too many problems. Ditto the seventh-seeded Cameron Norrie who is in second-round action against Joao Sousa of Portugal (6pm UK time).
Meanwhile in the women’s singles the world No 1, Iga Swiatek, springs back into action against Sloane Stephens on Arthur Ashe Stadium from 5pm UK time, which will be a match to keep a close eye on. Paula Badosa (4) is up against Petra Martic at 5.15pm UK time, before Garbine Muguruza (9) meets Linda Fruhvirtova from 7.15pm.
