Notably there have never been 2 Hungarian players in the second round in the men's US Open. They both play tonight

Marozsan against Mannarino
Fucsovics against Hijikata

Marozsan wins the first set. This would be a considerable upset.

Fucsovics is expected to win his game.

Him and Ivo were the last of the giant serve boys.
