A special cooling vest helped Jakub Menšík through his US Open victory over Austria’s Jurij Rodionov.
The Czech tennis player won 6-3, 3-6, 6-2, 6-3 on Thursday to reach the third round. He has now matched his best result at a Grand Slam tournament.
Menšík first played in the US Open main draw in 2023 and immediately reached the third round. He repeated that result the following year, and this year he has at least equaled it again. The win now sets up what the source calls a battle involving a new generation.
