NEW YORK (Reuters) -Britain's Jack Draper overcame a third-set wobble to get his U.S. Open campaign off to a winning start on Monday, beating Argentine qualifier Federico Agustin Gomez 6-4 7-5 6-7(7) 6-2 in the first round.
The victory marked Draper's first competitive singles match since his second-round exit at Wimbledon last month, and while he got off to a solid start, he was tested before securing the win in three hours.
