Erlich suffers first round US Open exit
Israeli interest at this year’s US Open is over after Jonathan Erlich was knocked out of the men’s doubles competition on Thursday night.
Having reached the semi-finals of the men’s doubles at Wimbledon in June, the Israeli, this time teaming up with New Zealander Artem Sitak couldn’t get past the first round as they were beaten 7-6, 3-6, 6-7 by Italians Marco Cecchinato and Andreas Seppi.
Erlich’s exit comes three days after Dudi Sela was beaten in the first round of the men’s singles competition.
