NEW YORK — The latest on the U.S. Open (all times local):
11:40 p.m.
Novak Djokovic simply does not lose second-round Grand Slam matches.
The No. 1-seeded Serb took a bit of time to get going Wednesday night at the U.S. Open, splitting the opening eight games, before reeling off 14 of the remaining 17 in a 6-4, 6-1, 6-2 victory over 52nd-ranked Andreas Haider-Maurer of Austria.
"From the 4-all moment," Djokovic said, "I played really well."
Now there's an understatement.
It was Djokovic's 29th consecutive victory in the second round at a major, a streak that dates to 2008.
