Carlos Alcaraz road to the US Open second round

Alcaraz couldn’t have wished for an easier start to his US Open campaign, with his first round match against Dominik Koepfer only just set over a set before the German had to retire through injury.

Alcaraz had already won the first set and look well on course to pull off a convincing victory.

Round Opponent Result
First Round Dominik Koepfer 6-2, 3-2 retired

Lloyd Harris road to the US Open second round

Harris is the current world number 186, having had a poor run of form over the past couple of years. His quarter-final appearance at the 2021 US Open seems a long way off, with just one second round Grand Slam appearance since.

He’ll be hoping to pull off a shock here and build on his first round, straight set win over Guido Pella.

Round Opponent Result
First Round Guido Pella 7-6(7-5), 6-4, 6-4

Carlos Alcaraz v Lloyd Harris Head to Head

This will be the first meeting between the two players.
