US Open Day 1 - Coco survives the circus; Rune relegated to the boondocks

US Open Day 1 - Coco survives the circus; Rune relegated to the boondocks

Day one of the US Open had a bit of everything - dominant displays from Iga Swiatek and Novak Djokovic, upsets as Maria Sakkari and Holger Rune were beaten, sweet spot aggro between Coco Gauff and Laura Siegemund, a first Grand Slam win in almost three years for Dominic Thiem, and a powerful ceremony with Billie Jean King and Michelle Obama to celebrate 50 years of equal prize money. Catherine, David and Matt discuss it all.
