IN NEW YORK: In a thrilling first-round matchup at the U.S. Open on Monday, Colombian qualifier Daniel Galan defeated fourth-seeded Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-0 6-1 3-6 7-5, winning the match on the ninth match point.
Galan, who was participating in the main event for the first time, showed that he belonged on tennis’ grandest stage, winning the opening 11 games as Tsitsipas struggled to muster any of his customary finesse and only managed to win five of his service points in the opening set.
Before the sixth game of the second set, when he eventually got on the board, and once more during the break before the third set, when he broke Galan in, Tsitsipas had a physio tend to his right arm.

After making it to the Cincinnati final last year, Tsitsipas, who has never advanced past the third round in New York, had hoped to do better this year. He dropped only four of his first-serve points in the third set, and he appeared to be gaining momentum when he broke Galan once more in the first game of the fourth set.
“I just kept my cool. Galan, who broke back in the ninth game, admitted that despite losing the set, she believed she was improving.
In the tenth game, Galan came dangerously close to breaking Tsitsipas for the match five times, and in the twelfth game, they eventually succeeded while staring in bewilderment at the spectators.
“I’m not sure how I feel right now,” he said after the match. “I went through the match well.”
