Former US Open champion Carlos Alcaraz remains on course to land a third Grand Slam title of the year as he gears up to tackle Dutchman Botic Van De Zandschulp in the second round on Thursday.
Alcaraz has captured back-to-back Slams at the French Open and Wimbledon and got his Flushing Meadows campaign off to the perfect start with a 6-2, 4-6, 6-3, 6-1 success over Li Tu on Tuesday.
However, he will likely face a sterner challenge from Van De Zandschlup after the 2021 US Open quarter-finalist demolished Denis Shapovalov in straight sets in his opening round encounter.
Carlos Alcaraz v Botic Van De Zandschulp at the US Open will be shown live on bet365's Sports Live Streaming platform.
The match will also be broadcast live on Sky Sports to customers in the UK.
Carlos Alcaraz v Botic Van De Zandschulp is set to start at 01:30 BST on Friday 30th August, with the encounter taking centre stage at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center at Flushing Meadows, New York City.
The second round meeting will represent the third time that Carlos Alcaraz and Botic Van De Zandschulp have met on the ATP circuit, with the Spanish star winning each of the two matches to date.
In fact, the world number three has yet to drop a single set to the Dutchman, easing past him 6-4, 6-2 at the Swiss Indoors Basel in 2022, having previously sent him packing from the Australian Open a year earlier (6-1, 6-4, 6-4).
