US Open tennis day two: Draper, Norrie and Keys in action – live

Korda goes long – just – with a forehand and Norrie has break point. But Korda matches Norrie’s trick in the previous game, launching an ace to get out of trouble. A passing forehand, from way behind the baseline, puts a smile on Norrie’s face: he’s got another break point. And it’s another ace from Korda! That’s his 10th of the match. Norrie gets his third chance to break with a backhand down the line but Korda’s serve is a serious force. The American battles on to take a 5-4 lead in the first set.

OM are victorious in the aftermath of the ‘incredible violence’ at Rennes but chaos is never far away at this club

Olympique de Marseille live precariously, attempting to harness the volcanic passion that flows through the club, without it enveloping it entirely. Treading such a fine line is easier said than done, and just a single goal, even one on the opening day of the season, is enough to trigger a meltdown of epic proportions.

Ludovic Blas’s injury-time winner for Rennes in the first game of the season was the trigger for what has now been termed by French media as “The Rabiot Affair”. It is an episode that has already put paid to Jonathan Rowe’s time at the club. The England Under-21 international was involved in a bust-up with Adrien Rabiot following the 1-0 defeat by Rennes. The sporting director, Medhi Benatia, confirmed that punches were thrown, while the club president, Pablo Longoria, spoke of “incredible violence”. Between teammates and staff attempting to break up the fight and one of OM’s youngsters, Darryl Bakola, fainting in the dressing room, it was a scene befitting a Renaissance painting.
