–

Only seven of the 16 seeds remain in this half for the third round, which means there could be a fair few mismatches as the last players look to make the second week.

But one of the unseededs is Canadian Gabriel Diallo, who is playing his sixth match in New York after winning three in qualifying.

Only one went according to plan: No. 5 Medvedev vs. No. 31 Cobolli.
