This morning, the 2024 US Open kicked off. The first day of the competition was full of upsets. So far, two top seeds have been defeated, Sakkari and Yastremska have both been eliminated. Zheng Qinwen broke through 2-1 and her next opponent was determined. Shang Juncheng fought Bublik for 5 sets and achieved 2 breaks. He is expected to upset the seeded player and win his first US Open victory.

The No. 9 seed in women's singles, Greek No. 1 Sakkari, had a bad start. She was too slow to warm up in the first match against Wang Yafan. She made as many as 14 unforced errors in the first set, failed to hit an ace, and forced two break points but failed. She lost 2-6. After that, Sakkari suddenly withdrew from the competition, and Wang Yafan stopped the No. 9 seed, creating the biggest upset in the first round.

After a three-hour and ten-minute battle, the No. 32 seed Yastremska and Niemeyer lost the first set 4-6, narrowly won the second set in a tiebreak, and chased down 1-4 in the final set to tie 4. In the 10th game, she lost her must-win serve and lost 4-6, becoming the second seeded player to be eliminated in this US Open. The No. 7 seed in women's singles and Paris Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen made a strong breakthrough, reversing the local wildcard Anisimova 2-1 and advancing to the second round to face Andreeva.

Shang Juncheng and No. 27 seed Bublik fought fiercely, and the two were tied 2-2 in the first four sets. In the final set, Shang Juncheng led 5-3. The Kazakhstan star hit 4 aces in a row in the 9th game to make a love game and chase the score to 4-5. Shang Juncheng only needs to win the 10th game to win his first US Open victory. Can he do it?
