Andy Murray rolled back the years as he agonisingly lost out to third seed Stefanos Tsitsipas on a sensational opening day at the US Open.
The former world number one pushed Tsitsipas all the way in a five-set marathon, but was left frustrated by the Greek's lengthy bathroom breaks and made his feelings clear afterwards.
It was a tough day for the British contingent with only Dan Evans making it through.
Meanwhile, Naomi Osaka got her title defence up and running with a 6-4 6-1 win over Marie Bouzkova.
Here, the PA news agency looks back at day one at the US Open.

Murray is such a legend. However, this turns out, the fact that he's going after the number 3 player in the world after all of it is insane. He literally has a metal hip ..... respect

Brit watch
Murray's defeat was quickly followed by Cameron Norrie going down in straight sets to Spanish teenager Carlos Alcaraz. Johanna Konta's withdrawal through injury pre-empted a miserable day for Britain's women with Heather Watson and Harriet Dart departing. But Dan Evans made it through, beating Brazil's Thiago Monteiro 6-3 7-6 (6) 6-4 6-1.
Fallen seeds
Men: John Isner (19), Ugo Humbert (23), Cameron Norrie (26), Alejandro Davidovich Fokina (29), Marin Cilic (30)

Up next
Fourth seed Alexander Zverev gets the action under way on Arthur Ashe against Sam Querrey, before women's world number one Ashleigh Barty takes on Vera Zvonareva. Novak Djokovic then begins his bid for the calendar grand slam against Holger Rune.
