US Open – Day 1 LIVE: Iga Swiatek gets action underway on Arthur Ashe before Francis Tiafoe features in an all-American clash<\/h1>\n

Follow Mail Sport’s live blog from Flushing Meadows as the opening day of the 2023 US Open gets underway.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Host commentator<\/p>\n

The U.S. Open has now officially begun. All the current play is mostly occurring on the outside courts as we speak. <\/p>\n

The main court – Arthur Ashe Stadium – isn’t in use until midday ET. The secondary stadium – Louis Armstrong – currently has Victoria Azarenka on court. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Novak Djokovic will play for the first time at the U.S. Open since 2021 tonight. <\/p>\n

The No. 2 seed will take on Frenchman Alexandre Muller at 8.15pm ET. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Victoria Azarenka (No. 18) vs. Fiona Ferro <\/p>\n

Karolina Muchova (No. 10) vs. Storm Sanders <\/p>\n

Iga Switaek (No. 1) vs. Rebecca Peterson<\/p>\n

Belinda Bencic (No. 15) vs. Kamilla Rakhimova <\/p>\n

Veronika Kudermetova (No. 16) vs. Bernarda Pera <\/p>\n

Elena Rybakina (No. 4) vs. Marta Kostyuk <\/p>\n

Maria Sakkari (No. 8) vs. Rebeka Masarova<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are some of the top men’s players in action during the morning and afternoon slates: <\/p>\n

Holger Rune (No. 4) vs. Roberto Carballes Baena <\/p>\n

Dominic Thiem vs. Alexander Bublik <\/p>\n

Casper Ruud (No. 5) vs. Emilio Nava<\/p>\n

Frances Tiafoe (No. 10) vs. Learner Tien <\/p>\n

Taylor Fritz (No. 9) vs. Steve Johnson<\/p>\n

Tommy Paul (No. 14) vs. Stefano Travaglia <\/p>\n

Felix Auger-Aliassime (No. 15) vs. Mackenzie McDonald<\/p>\n

With Andy Roddick the last U.S. man to win a slam — all the way back in 2003 — hopes once again lie with the likes of Tiafoe and Fritz to bring an end to the drought. <\/p>\n

Though, there are five seeded Americans – the most since 2004. Below are the quintet and their first round opponents. <\/p>\n

Fritz (No. 9) vs. Steve Johnson<\/p>\n

Tiafoe (No. 10) vs. Learner Tien <\/p>\n

Tommy Paul (No. 14) vs. Stefano Travaglia <\/p>\n

Christopher Eubanks (No. 28) vs. Soonwoo Kwon<\/p>\n

Sebastian Korda (No. 31) vs. Marton Fuscovics<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

43 Americans will feature on day one in the northern part of Queens, NY. <\/p>\n

24 of those will be women and 19 men. Among the headliners are top-10 seeds, Frances Tiafoe and Taylor Fritz. <\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Good morning and\/or afternoon! Welcome to Mail Sport’s wall-to-wall live coverage of Day 1 at Flushing Meadows for the final grand slam on the calendar. <\/p>\n
