CCLICK HERE TO UPDATE THE LIVE LIVE DI SINNER-KHACHANOV
18:08 Camp 8 is being dried up by various means. We shouldn’t be very far from the actual new entry of Sinner and Khachanov, who have not even been able to warm up before.
17:53 There is no exact information on when he will resume playing on the other fields; at the moment only Hibino-Muguruza is being played on Louis Armstrong Stadium and also on Arthur Ashe Stadium it will be possible to play with the roof closed.
Due to the current weather conditions, we will have a delayed start of play with the exception of Louis Armstrong Stadium.
Once the rain stops, we will dry the courts and play will commence. ☔️

17:10 We will update you on the developments of the rain, and therefore we will hear back, we hope, in a short time.
17:08 Players sent back to the locker room, evidently at the moment the rain does not allow the start. It is not a particularly heavy rain, but it is enough to prevent the start.
17:06 There is some problem that delays the start of heating, probably a few drops of rain. Indeed, the clouds are quite threatening.
17:04 Adequately equipped with masks, Sinner and Khachanov enter the field.
17:00 The second day of the US Open opens, the one dedicated to the lower part of the male and female scoreboards. Even today a number of clouds.
16:55 A few minutes of waiting before the two protagonists enter the field.
16:50 Jannik Sinner’s is just the first of today’s five blue engagements, with Gianluca Mager, Salvatore Caruso, Andreas Seppi and, probably later of all, Matteo Berrettini all engaged in what promises to be a long Italian night.
16:45 The ATP website also includes Sinner-Khachanov among the matches which, basically, are to be observed with special attention. And actually it is a bit difficult to understand why this meeting, in terms of importance, has been included on field 8 (net of the issue linked to closed doors, and also net of the change of references on the differences of the Slam fields).
Day 2 on the way at the #USOpen
Who’s moving into the second round?

16:40 The winner of this match will face one of the other Russian Andrey Kuznetsov and the American Sam Querrey, who logically is the favorite. The billboard spot is the one in which there are also the Australian Alex de Minaur and the match between Ivo Karlovic and the French Richard Gasquet; to command the eighth in question is one of the hottest players of the moment, the Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut.
16:35 First official challenge between the South Tyrolean and the seeding number 11, who already faced each other in an exhibition less than two months ago in Berlin with the success of the Italian; clearly, though, a performance is one thing and a tournament like the US Open is another.
16:30 Good afternoon everyone, and welcome to LIVE LIVE from the first round match of the US Open between Jannik Sinner and Russian Karen Khachanov, perhaps one of the most anticipated in the absolute sense of the day.

Good afternoon to all OA Sport readers, and welcome to LIVE LIVE of the first round of the US Open 2020 between Jannik Sinner and Russian Karen Khachanov, seeded number 11 of the New York tournament.
The two players face each other for the second time in a few months, although here it is something much more important than an exhibition, that of Berlin, in which the blue managed to beat the Russian. Perhaps it is the draw that Sinner would have gladly avoided, but not even the Russian, with a good chance, would have liked to face the young blue immediately. It is played on field number 8 of the New York facility, behind closed doors like all the rest of the tournament and the fields.
At the level of official precedents, between number 74 and number 16 in the world there are none. The approach of the two was different: the South Tyrolean found himself facing the qualifiers to the Masters 1000 a week ago moved from Cincinnati to Flushing Meadows, but lost to Salvatore Caruso in three sets, while the Russian has passed two rounds before being defeated by the future semi-finalist, the Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut.
This is the first of a series of five matches that will involve Italian players. After Sinner, in fact, Gianluca Mager, Salvatore Caruso, Andreas Seppi and above all Matteo Berrettini will be busy during the night. A patrol, the Italian one, which was substantially halved on the first day also due to draws that were not exactly favorable. We try, therefore, to put the situation back on its feet starting from this, albeit difficult, clash.
The match between Jannik Sinner and Karen Khachanov will start at 17:00. Have fun with OA Sport LIVE LIVE!
