Yuki participated in the US Open without any match practice as he didn't play after Wimbledon ... So overall expected loss of him ... In the first set, Herbert broke him early to lead 1-4 and 1-5 before winning the first 3-6 ... In the second set, Yuki broke Herbert in the 2nd game to lead 3-0 but lost his serve on the 7th game, 4-3 ... Herbert dominated the tie-break for winning the set ... In the third set, Yuki broke Herbert in the 7th game to lead 5-3 ... But after that Herbert made a strong comeback in the set and broke Yuki in the 10th and 12th games for completing win ... So Yuki's search for his first grand slam main-draw win continues.

Vishnu and Bala failed to make cut ... Purav is playing with Gojowczyk and they r facing Mektic and Melzer ... Divij and Artem r back and playing against American wild-card pair ...Jeevan is playing with Istomin but having a tough match against the 5th seed Colombians ... Rohan is seeded with Edouard and having a tricky match against Mischa and Baghdatis ... Lee is playing with Cerretani and they r facing Frenchmen.

In MXD, only Rohan is playing with German Laura Siegemund ... They r facing the 7th seeds Srebotnik and Michael Venus.
