Djokovic marches on in his bid for a 25th Grand Slam title and American players shine on a hot day three in New York.
Defending champion Coco Gauff and 12th seed Taylor Fritz capped a terrific day at Flushing Meadows for the home hopes as several Americans moved on to the third round of the US Open tennis championship.
Gauff cleaned up early mistakes to beat unseeded German Tatjana Maria 6-4 6-0, setting up a meeting with 2019 semifinalist Elina Svitolina of Ukraine following her victory at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Wednesday night.
“It was a tricky match. I mean, she’s not someone that sometimes you play and you feel great after,” said Gauff. “It was just about execution.”
