Back-to-back losses in Cincinnati and Winston-Salem had preceded this, and they stop here: the No. 7 seed handles a qualifier to open his US Open. Medvedev hit 10 aces to none and won 83 percent of his first-serve points, taking four of eight break chances while Gaston got nothing from his one. The Frenchman's early lead lasted until game 7 of the opener, broken back for 3-4, and never returned. Next in the draw: Sebastian Gorzny, ranked 760th.
