Roger Federer beats Damir Dzumhur to reach US Open 3rd round



AGENCIES: Roger Federer came from a set down to beat Damir Dzumhur 3-6 6-2 6-3 6-4 under the Arthur Ashe Stadium roof to reach the US Open third round.

The world number three hit 17 unforced errors in losing the first set.

But the Swiss five-time champion dominated the remainder of the match to defeat Bosnian world number 99 Dzumhur.

Victory for the 38-year-old sets up a third-round match against either Britain’s Dan Evans or Frenchman Lucas Pouille at Flushing Meadows.

Evans and Pouille will play on Thursday after rain in New York forced the cancellation of Wednesday’s day session on the outside courts.
