September 3, 2020 |<\/span> 2:34am <\/p>\n

\n No offense to the Long Island Marriott, but Novak Djokovic didn\u2019t want you.<\/p>\n

Djokovic is one of only a couple of men\u2019s players to rent a house during the U.S. Open because he was willing to pay the $60,000 for 24-hour security to ensure he followed bubble rules.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s certainly working. After winning the Open tuneup on Saturday, he moved onto the third round Wednesday and raised his 2020 record to 25-0.<\/p>\n

After dropping the first set to Britain\u2019s Kyle Edmund, Djokovic effortlessly rallied to post a 6-7, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 victory at empty Arthur Ashe Stadium.<\/p>\n

Almost all of the players are in the hotel by Nassau Coliseum. <\/p>\n

\u201cI am really grateful that I have an opportunity to stay in the house,\u2019\u2019 Djokovic said. \u201cAs soon as there was a chance for us to choose to be in a house, we took it right away without thinking. I\u2019m glad we did. It\u2019s not the privilege of the top guys or girls. Anyone that wanted to spend money and stay in the house, he or she could have done that. \u2026 I know there\u2019s very few players that have chosen to stay in a house, but it is a personal choice.\u201d<\/p>\n

Safety reasons and aesthetic reasons made it a no-brainer. Djokovic nearly skipped the Open because of concerns about travel<\/a>ing from Europe and not being able to fly back for the French Open in late September. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s the only one of the Big 3 who opted to play as Rafael Nadal begged off and Roger Federer took care of minor knee surgery instead of putting it off until the offseason.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing in a hotel, you\u2019re unable to open the window in the room,\u2019\u2019 Djokovic said. \u201cYou constantly have to be with a mask indoors, outdoors, everywhere. You can\u2019t really go out, spend time in the garden maybe outdoors. I saw the hotel. The hotel is not in a best position in terms of having nature around. It\u2019s very close to the highway. Most of them are staying there. \u2026 But I never spent a second thinking that I can stay in a hotel when I heard that I can have a chance to stay in a house.\u2019\u2019 <\/p>\n

Against Edmund, Djokovic never feared he couldn\u2019t withstand an 0-1 deficit with his stamina one of the best the sport has ever seen. The Serbian owns 17 Grand Slam titles, trailing Federer by just three.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mindset app<\/a>roaching Grand Slams is different from any other tournament,\u2019\u2019 Djokovic said. \u201cFor me, I actually like my chances the longer the match goes, especially with someone like Kyle that spends a lot of energy. He\u2019s playing some powerful tennis, serve and forehand, but doesn\u2019t move that well for a long time. I knew that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Several seeded women\u2019s players had trouble on Wednesday, most notably ousted No. 1 Karolina Pliskova, but fourth-seeded Naomi Osaka had no such problems. <\/p>\n

Osaka, who had her left leg taped after withdrawing from the Western & Southern Open final last week with a thigh injury, cruised past Italy\u2019s Camila Giorgi, 6-1, 6-2, at Arthur Ashe Stadium to move into the third round. <\/p>\n

Osaka, the 2018 U.S. Open champion who has yet to drop a set, will meet Ukranian Marta Kostyuk next. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think my serve was pretty good,\u201d Osaka said. \u201cI\u2019m really happy with my attitude. I thought I was really positive throughout.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Taylor Fritz, the men\u2019s 19th seed, weaved his best Open showing as he got to the third round with a tidy straight-set win over French veteran Gilles Simon, 7-5, 6-3, 6-2. The 21-year-old American is one of the country\u2019s best chances of one day competing for a Grand Slam title. \u2026 Jack Sock\u2019s time appears to have come and gone. The Nebraskan lost to 32nd-seed Adrian Mannarino 7-6, 7-5, 6-2. \u2026 Britain\u2019s Cameron Norrie, who staged a shocking five-set upset in the first round over ninth-seeded Diego Schwartzman, continued to move on with a neater 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 triumph.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Serena Williams will grace the night card Thursday at Arthur Ashe Stadium with a second-rounder versus Russia\u2019s Margarita Gasparyan, ranked 117th. The first match on Ashe on is American-by-way-of-Russia Sofia Kenin, the No. 2 seed who won the Australian Open. She faces Canada\u2019s Leylah Fernandez.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
