US Open order of play and Wednesday’s tennis schedule
The 2023 US Open continues as the second round of the men’s and women’s singles gets underway in New York, with Novak Djokovic – newly returned to world No 1 – headlining the day’s action at Flushing Meadows.
Djokovic is second on Arthur Ashe Stadium as he takes on Bernabe Zapata Miralles, after home favourite Coco Gauff opens proceedings against teenage Russian sensation Mira Andreeva. The night session then sees another American, men’s 10th seed Frances Tiafoe, face Austria’s Sebastian Ofner before a pair of grand slam winners round out the evening, in the form of Petra Kvitova and Caroline Wozniacki.
Elsewhere, women’s No 1 seed Iga Swiatek continues the defence of her title with a second-round clash against Australia’s Daria Saville and another title contender, Elena Rybakina, squares off with Ajla Tomljanovic.
Remarkably, all seven competing Brits made it through the first round of the men’s and women’s singles and the first of those will tackle a second-round encounter at 4pm BST. Qualifier Lily Miyazaki secured a first grand slam main draw win of her career on Monday and will now face 15th seed Belinda Bencic on Court 5.
