Yibing Wu defeated Adam Walton 7(7)-6(2), 6-2, 7-5 — US Open 2026 R128.
Yibing Wu and Adam Walton: Yibing Wu leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
Fifteen aces and a break for 6-5 in the opening set bought Walton nothing. The 93rd-ranked favorite, whom the betting market had at 53 percent, was broken back in game 12 for 6-6 and then won only 14 of 38 second-serve points across the afternoon. Wu took 26 of his own 45, held 15 of 16 service games and finished with 43 winners to 29, 22 of those arriving in the third set alone. The win, in 2 hours 24 minutes, ends a four-match losing run dating to May and sends him into a second round with James Duckworth (No. 79).
