Overview

• Novak Djokovic recovered from a set down to defeat American qualifier Zachary Svajda 6-7(5), 6-3, 6-3, 6-1 and will face Cameron Norrie in the third round after saying he did not feel great physically.
• Emma Raducanu beat Indonesian qualifier Janice Tjen 6-2, 6-1 with just eight unforced errors, her first US Open wins since 2021, and next faces ninth seed Elena Rybakina.
• Fifth seed Jack Draper withdrew with persistent discomfort in his left arm, giving Zizou Bergs a walkover and altering projected paths in the top half of the men’s draw.
• Twelfth seed Casper Ruud fell 6-4, 3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 7-5 to Belgium’s Raphael Collignon, a qualifier ranked outside the top 100 who earned the biggest win of his career.
• Taylor Townsend defeated Jelena Ostapenko 7-5, 6-1 before a tense exchange at the net, with Townsend saying Ostapenko told her she had no class or education and Ostapenko later objecting to a missed net-cord apology, a dispute world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka said Ostapenko would regret.
