Andy Murray begins his 2023 US Open with a first round match against Corentin Moutet of France.

It is now 11 years since the British player secured his first grand slam crown at Flushing Meadows.

The 36-year-old has shown signs of promise throughout 2023, reaching the third round of the Australian Open in January and pushing fifth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas close in a second round five-setter at Wimbledon.

He faces a tricky opener in New York, though - Frenchman Moutet reached the fourth round of the year’s final grand slam in 2022 and will offer great variety in his strokeplay.
