Great Britain enjoyed another successful day of US Open qualifying on Wednesday, as Liam Broady and Yuriko Miyazaki both prevailed in their opening contests.
Broady - who is seeded 10th in the men's singles qualifying - got off to a difficult start against the Netherlands' Jelle Sels but fought back to prevail 4-6 6-1 6-2.
A second-round battle with another Dutchman Jesper de Jong now awaits Broady, who could have potentially faced compatriot Jan Choinski for a spot in the main draw.
However, the 27-year-old's bid for another main-draw appearance came to a swift end at the hands of Japan's Sho Shimabukuro, who eased to a 6-3 6-3 victory.
There was more success for GB in the women's qualifying tournament, though, as Miyazaki battled her way past Ukraine's Daria Snigur 6-3 6-2 to set up a clash with Russia's Valeria Savinykh.
Miyazaki has just one Grand Slam main draw appearance to her name - reaching the first round of Wimbledon last year - and she is one of two British women left in the qualifying competition alongside Harriet Dart, who faces Belgian third seed Yanina Wickmayer in a second-round preliminary battle later today. body check tags ::
