Turned to be a terrible day for Indians ... The only new pairing of Lee-Purav scored an impressive win over experienced Serbian pair in the straight sets ... Next, they r facing exciting #NextGen Russian players, Karen Khachanov and Andrey Rublev.

Not playing together in preparation for US Open was costed to Rohan-Pablo ... After winning the first they failed to keep momentum and strong Italian pair made strong comeback for winning next two ... Divij-Andre didn't managed to pose lot of trouble to seeded Spanish pair.
In MXD, shocking result for Sania-Ivan ... The French Open singles champion Ostapenko overpowered this pair with the help from Fabrice Martin after losing the first set.

Bad start for Nitin in grandslam qualifying as he lost in the first qualifying match against lower ranked Dominican Republican player.
