–

The second round of singles wrapped up, with much cooler temperatures helping the situation immensely.

And you can only think of what might have been for Denis Shapovalov to play Carlos Alcaraz in an Arthur Ashe night match, and for Félix Auger-Aliassime to have a pretty cake second round in reciprocal wild card Tristan Schoolkate of Australia.

But there was Gabriel Diallo, who takes on No. 24 seed Arthur Fils – who is a couple of years younger – in a match where you’d give him at least a puncher’s chance. And he took it, big time.

Later on, a shocker as Alcaraz spirals out of the tournament.
