Featured Men's Singles 2R Matches 2016 US OPEN Flushing Meadows, New York, USA | August 29 – September 11, 2016 Draw Size: S-128, D-64 | $46.3 million | Hard www.usopen.org DAY THREE MEDIA NOTES | Wednesday, August 31, 2016 FEATURED MEN’S SINGLES 2R MATCHES Arthur Ashe Stadium [1] Novak Djokovic (SRB) vs Jiri Vesely (CZE) Vesely Leads 1-0 [4] Rafael Nadal (ESP) vs Andreas Seppi (ITA) Nadal Leads 7-1 Louis Armstrong Stadium [20] John Isner (USA) vs [Q] Steve Darcis (BEL) First Meeting [26] Jack Sock (USA) vs [Q] Mischa Zverev (GER) First Tour-Level Meeting Grandstand [23] Kevin Anderson (RSA) vs Vasek Pospisil (CAN) Anderson Leads 1-0 [5] Milos Raonic (CAN) vs [Q] Ryan Harrison (USA) Series Tied 1-1 Americans in Action (4) [WC] Ernesto Escobedo (USA) vs Kyle Edmund (GBR) 1st Match at 11:00 am on Court 13 [Q] Ryan Harrison (USA) vs [5] Milos Raonic (CAN) 2nd Match After 11:00 am on Grandstand [20] John Isner (USA) vs Steve Darcis (BEL) 2nd Match After 11:00 am on Armstrong [26] Jack Sock (USA) vs [Q] Mischa Zverev (GER) 4th Match After 11:00 am on Armstrong DAY THREE HIGHLIGHTS After winning their first-round matches inside Arthur Ashe Stadium, two-time champions Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal will return to the biggest tennis venue in the world when second-round play gets underway Wednesday at the US Open. Americans John Isner and Jack Sock highlight the schedule on Louis Armstrong Stadium, while Canadians Vasek Pospisil and Milos Raonic play consecutive matches on Grandstand. Raonic reached his maiden Grand Slam final at Wimbledon, beginning a summer of firsts for some of the brightest stars on tour. No. 10 seed Gael Monfils, who plays on Court 17, captured his first ATP World Tour 500 title at Washington. No. 7 seed Marin Cilic, who plays on Court 5, secured his first ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title at Cincinnati. Djokovic rarely faces a player who owns a winning record against him. He will Wednesday when he takes on Jiri Vesely. In their only meeting, the 23-year-old Czech defeated the defending champion Djokovic in the second round at ATP Masters 1000 Monte-Carlo in April. Vesely is one of two Top 100 players with more wins than losses against Djokovic (No. 23 Ivo Karlovic is 2-1). On the other hand, Djokovic has dominated the next three highest-ranked players in his half of the draw: Nadal (26-23 with 7 straight wins and 15 straight sets), Raonic (7-0) and Cilic (14-0). Nadal follows Djokovic against Andreas Seppi in the night session’s featured men’s match on Arthur Ashe Stadium. The No. 4 seed is 7-1 lifetime versus Seppi, including a straight-set win during the Rio Olympics second round on August 9. Nadal has won one hard-court title since capturing the 2013 US Open championship, and that came nearly 32 months ago at Doha. Seppi is 8-77 lifetime against Top 10 opponents with eight straight losses. Louis Armstrong Stadium will host Americans Isner and Sock against qualifiers Steve Darcis and Mischa Zverev respectively. Isner earned the second comeback of his career from two sets down on Monday, and Darcis did the same. The 20th-seeded Isner edged 18-year-old countryman Frances Tiafoe, while Darcis rallied to defeat unseeded Aussie Jordan Thompson. Sock, too, required five sets to advance past American teenager Taylor Fritz, making Zverev’s four-set win over Pierre-Hugues Herbert seem routine. Mischa and Alexander Zverev are the first brothers to both reach the second round at the US Open since Byron and Wayne Black in 1998. A trio of Top 10 seeds will play second-round matches on outer courts. Cilic, who won the 2014 US Open title, takes to Court 5 against Sergiy Stakhovsky. The Croat has won 13 of his last 14 and 17 of his last 19 matches at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. French shot-makers Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Monfils will play back- to-back on Court 17. The ninth-seeded Tsonga takes on Australian wild card James Duckworth for the first time, then the 10th-seeded Monfils meets Czech qualifier Jan Satral, who earned his first tour-level win on Monday. 2016 US OPEN – Day 3 Media Notes Wednesday, August 31, 2016 Page 2 of 21 [1] Novak Djokovic (SRB) vs Jiri Vesely (CZE) Vesely Leads 1-0 A 16 ATP Masters 1000 Monte-Carlo Clay R32 Jiri Vesely 6-4 2-6 6-4 Djokovic is 43-2 in Grand Slam 2R, falling at Roland Garros in 2005 (ret. vs. Coria) and 2008 Wimbledon (l. to Safin).

    2017 US OPEN Flushing, New York, USA | August 28-September 10, 2017 Draw Size: S-128, D-64 | $50.4 million | Hard www.usopen.org DAY 10 MEDIA NOTES | Wednesday, September 6, 2017 FEATURED MEN’S SINGLES QUARTER-FINALS ARTHUR ASHE STADIUM [1] Rafael Nadal (ESP) vs Andrey Rublev (RUS) First Meeting [3] Roger Federer (SUI) vs [24] Juan Martin del Potro (ARG) Federer Leads 16-5 DAY 10 HIGHLIGHTS • Eight years and four wrist surgeries since ending Roger Federer’s 40-match US Open win streak, Juan Martin del Potro returns to Arthur Ashe Stadium for a rematch. The Argentine is 5-16 against Federer with all five wins on hard courts, none more meaningful than when he rallied from a set-and-a-break down to deny Federer a sixth straight US Open title. Del Potro can prevent history from being made again as Federer and Rafael Nadal are one win from meeting for the first time at the US Open. The Swiss and Spaniard have been this close six times now, including in 2009, when del Potro defeated Nadal 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 in the semi-finals before beating Federer in the final. • Nadal’s quarter-final opponent on Wednesday is #NextGenATP player Andrey Rublev. The 19-year-old Russian is the youngest US Open quarter-finalist since Andy Roddick in 2001. Rublev would be the youngest semi-finalist at the US Open since Lleyton Hewitt in 2000 and at any Grand Slam event since Nadal at 2005 Roland Garros. A teenager has never defeated a World No.

    Média alerte Steve Darcis et David Ferrer éliminés en huitièmes de finale de l’European Open David Goffin est entré sur le court central Anvers, 20 octobre 2016 – Schwartzman, Struff, Copil et Edmund se sont qualifiés aujourd’hui pour les quarts de finale de l’European Open. Notre compatriote Steve Darcis n’a pas pu s’imposer sur le court central du Lotto Arena face au Roumain Marius Copil. C’est à la suite d’un match intense que David Ferrer a dû s’incliner face à Kyle Edmund (6- 1, 3-6, 7-6(3)). David Goffin, le dernier belge encore en lice joue actuellement son premier match du tournoi sur le court central face Florian Mayer. Le premier match du jour opposait le jeune (18 ans) Taylor Fritz (ATP-70) à l’Argentin Schwartzman (ATP-77). L’Américain, qui a éliminé au premier tour le Belge Joris De Loore, n’a pas pu s’imposer aujourd’hui (6-4, 6-4). Ce fut ensuite au tour de l’Allemand Jan-Lennard Struff (ATP-98) d’éliminer au second tour la tête de série numéro cinq, le Français Gilles Simon (ATP-25), également sur un double 6-4. Il faut croire que la Belgique réussit à l’Allemand puisqu’il a remporté l’Ethias Trophy de Mons il y a deux semaines et inscrit aujourd’hui sa septième victoire sur notre sol. Le début de soirée fut rythmé par des simples très attendus, le premier opposant Steve Darcis à Marius Copil et qui s’est soldé par une victoire du Roumain (7-6(3), 6-2).

    THE US OPEN T O Throughout its 133-year history, the US Open has dared its entrants to dream U R I N big, to strive for excellence in each and every match, and in turn the Open has N F A O done the same. It has moved from the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills to the M USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, one of the largest public tennis facili - E N ties in the world, and plays its marquee matches in Arthur Ashe Stadium, the T largest tennis stadium in the world.
