Overview
- Buse lost 6-2, 7-6(4), 6-0 to Benjamin Bonzi on Thursday, ending his singles run at the US Open in a 1 hour 57 minute match on Court 13.
- Less than 24 hours earlier he had beaten Marcos Giron in five sets, and coverage cites that the long, rain-delayed match left Buse visibly exhausted for the rematch with Bonzi.
- The result reversed a meeting from days earlier at Winston-Salem, where Buse defeated Bonzi in the semifinals en route to the ATP 250 title he won in August.
- Dozens of Peruvian supporters cheered Buse in New York and the player thanked them, saying he always expects Peruvians to show up at his matches.
- Buse remains entered in the US Open doubles draw with Marco Trungelliti to play Petr Nouza and Neil Oberleitner on Sept. 4, and Bonzi advances to face Karen Khachanov in the third round.
