    Nicely done Salisbury. Granollers tries to lob the Brit but he leaps high to smash the overhead volley.

    Early birds catch the doubles.

    There is a very healthy crowd on Arthur Ashe Stadium, with most of the lower bowl full and thousands more dotted around the upper tier.

    You will notice the roof is shut. Violent thunderstorms are expected to hit New York City later...

    So far so good for the Brits!

    Granollers/Zeballos 3-5 Salisbury/Skupski*

    Salisbury dashes out wide but ends up nudging into the net for 0-30.

    Granollers/Zeballos 3-5 Salisbury/Skupski*

    Skupski will serve for the set. Always a tough ask.

  17. Salisbury/Skupski breakpublished at 17:51 British Summer Time 6 September

    Granollers/Zeballos 3-5 Salisbury/Skupski*

    Granollers and Zeballos save the first break point but Granollers misses the first serve on the next point...And then the second.

    That's two double faults in one game from Granollers. He looked shaky there and it's the Brits with the advantage in set one.

  18. Salisbury/Skupski break pointspublished at 17:49 British Summer Time 6 September

    *Granollers/Zeballos 3-4 Salisbury/Skupski

    We've seen a couple of unusual moments now where Granollers and Zeballos appear to go for the same ball.

    Anyway a Salisbury forehand winner moves the Brits to 15-30 before a double fault from Granollers hands over two break points.

    The first of the match.

  19. Salisbury holdspublished at 17:45 British Summer Time 6 September

    *Granollers/Zeballos 3-4 Salisbury/Skupski

    Another simple hold for the Brits. Salisbury hits the lines well on serve and there's not much between these pairings at the moment.

  20. Zeballos holdspublished at 17:42 British Summer Time 6 September

    Granollers/Zeballos 3-3 Salisbury/Skupski*

    Almost a collision as both Granollers and Zeballos go for the volleys at the net but other than that it's smooth sailing again for the French Open champions.

    A hold to love keeps us on serve in set one.
