Federer Eases Past Philipp Kohlschreiber

The Swiss star came up against his toughest test of the U.S. Open so far and passed with flying colours as he needed just one hour and 33 minutes to dispatch Philipp Kohlschreiber.

Kohlschreiber broke Federer's run of 78 consecutive service holds in the second set, but his illustrious opponent responded with an immediate break of his own as he remained comfortable throughout.

The tournament's official Twitter feed shared the highlights:

According to the U.S. Open's website, the second seed only won 80 points to the German's 75. Per Reuters (via Al Jazeera) Federer said: "I think I won the big points today. I served well when I had to at the end."

As the New York Times' Ben Rothenberg noted, the 34-year-old has set up a fourth-round showdown with American John Isner, who Federer believes will enjoy a partisan crowd at Flushing Meadows:

Nevertheless, Federer often enjoys plenty of support even against home favourites, so expect both players to receive plenty of vocal support.

Isner comfortably beat Jiri Vesely in his match, although the Czech retired after the second set.

The No. 13 seed is in outstanding form, though, so expect fireworks when he meets Federer.

Murray Powers Past Thomaz Bellucci

After being taken to five sets by Adrian Mannarino in the second round, Murray's match against Thomaz Bellucci was far more straightforward. As Ben Rothenberg noted, the result was the exact response the Scot would have been looking for:

The situation looked dangerous for Murray as he was broken in his first service game, but the third seed responded magnificently and remained on the front foot for the remainder of the match.

Bellucci was only afforded one more break point for the rest of the night, which the Brazilian failed to take. Murray's net play was excellent, as his 72 per cent success rate indicates, per the US Open's website. 

Here are the highlights, courtesy of the tournament's Twitter feed:

Per BBC Sport, Murray admitted it was important to bounce back the way he did. He said: "It was very important today. My last match was extremely tough physically and mentally. It was a lot cooler today, which helps, and to get the win in three sets. I get a day to recover now and get ready for the next one."

Winning just five of 13 break points could be something of a concern for the 28-year-old, though.

He faces Kevin Anderson in the next round, with the South African coming off the back of a straight-sets win over Dominic Thiem.

The South African has never reached the fourth round before, though, so Murray's experience should see him through to the business end of the tournament.
