The Colombian then missed out on five match points on Tsitsipas’ serve in the 10th game. Tsitsipas saved three more match points in the 12th game before Galan finally converted in what was the ninth match point to win the two houra nd 48 minute contest 6-0, 6-1, 3-6, 7-5.
The 26-year-old Galan, wh is making his main draw debut at the U.S. Open this year, had come through the qualifiers, defeating Italy’s Luciano Darderi, Australia’s Max Purcell and Italy’s Matteo Arnaldi, all in straight sets.
On Monday, he continued the good form against Tsitsipas, striking 41 winners and making just 36 unforced errors to the Greek’s 28 winners and 57 unforced errors. It was the first top 10 win of his career and he will look to keep the momentum going in the next round.

Thompson Rallies From Two Sets Down to Advance
Outplayed in the first two sets, Australia’s Jordan Thompson made a remarkable recovery to oust Italy’s Lorenzo Sonego in the opening round on Monday.
The World No. 102 missed out on two break point chances in the first set and didn’t face a single break point in the second Sonego dominated the proceedings. The Italian broke twice in the first set and thrice in the second to go two sets up. With his back against the wall, Thompson began to force his way back into the contest.
The Aussie broke the World No. 63 twice in the third set and then got a solitary break each in the final two sets to score a remarkable 2-6, 1-6, 6-2, 6-4, 6-4 victory in three hours and 15 minutes.
This is the fifth time in his seventh attempt that Thompson has reached the second round at Flushing Meadows. The only time he went past the Round of 64, it was in 2020 when he went on to reach the Round of 16.
Galan v Thompson Prediction and Tip
While Thompson is the more experienced player on hard courts and has a decent U.S. Open record, Galan is coming off a dream debut and that first round win could inspire him to win another. Expect a close contest, with the Colombian edging past the Aussie.
