Francisco Comesaña gave the only joy of the day to Argentine tennis at the US Open. The tennis player born in Mar del Plata won against local Alex Michelsen in the first round and confirmed his great moment in the circuit.

Comesaña (54th in the ATP ranking) overcame a bad start and defeated his rival (32nd) 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 and 6-4. His next match will be against British Cameron Norrie.
