Francisco Cerúndolo, the top-ranked Argentine tennis player, advanced to the second round of the 2026 US Open after defeating Austria’s Filip Misolic in straight sets (6-4, 6-3, 7-5) in a two-hour and 23-minute match. This win marks Cerúndolo's fourth second-round appearance in his career, following a strong start to the year that included victories at the Argentina Open and Queen’s.
However, he had lost his last three matches since then. The Argentine player credited his coach Nicolás Massú for his recent improvement, noting that Massú understands his playing style. Cerúndolo will face Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff in the next round.
