Francisco Cerundolo was hailed for his sportsmanship at the US Open against Andy Murray as he admitted to a double bounce after being awarded a point.

I think there is an argument for it to be used in those situations, for sure." "I don't think that loads of players on the tour would have done that. "The umpire said, ‘No, he got that up' and Cerundolo said ‘No, it was a double bounce’. It is 0-30.” Fair play to him. US Open

The Briton beat the No 24 seed 7-5, 6-3, 6-3 to advance to face John Millman or Emilio Nava in the second round.

He broke serve for the set courtesy of a double fault on set point from Cerúndolo, and then he breezed through the match to record a solid win. Murray first served for the set at 5-3, missing an easy overhead at 15-15 and drawing gasps from the dismayed crowd, then he struck two more errors as he lost his serve. The entire stadium stopped to watch the footage in silence and confirmation of the second bounce prompted widespread boos from the crowd. The summer had started in promising fashion, with Murray skipping the French Open in favour of preparing for the grass season. The early months of Cerúndolo’s breakthrough year included a run to the semi-final on the hard courts of the Miami Masters 1000 event in March. Despite the fact Murray arrived on court with a clear opportunity, it was not a simple task.

Coco Gauff has eased her way into the second round of the US Open after a comfortable 6-2 6-2 win over Leolia Jeanjean.

My serve is something I've been working on and hopefully it's the reason I can make it far here." This is actually my first win on Ashe so I think this is the fourth match maybe on this court. I was having a lot of fun out there.”

In the first notable upset of this year's US Open, qualifier Daria Snigur overcame Simona Halep in three sets to reach the second round.

[Order of play](https://www.wtatennis.com/tournament/905/us-open/2022/order-of-play) The US Open has been a challenge for Halep since she reached the 2015 semifinals and the quarterfinals a year later. Halep closed to 4-5, but Snigur served out the match, winning when a Halep backhand found the net. In the third set, the momentum swung back toward Snigur as she channeled her first-set self, calmly striking winners and matching Halep’s scurrying defense. She dominated the two-time Grand Slam champion in every way possible. After taking the title two weeks ago in Toronto, Halep had won 19 of her past 22 matches.
