Jack Draper received a telling-off from his US Open mixed doubles partner Jessica Pegula after he mistakenly branded the tournament an “exhibition”. Draper and Pegula are the No. 1 seeds in the draw for the revamped mixed event, which has a staggering £741k ($1million) prize up for grabs for the champions.

Watch highlights as Emma Raducanu and Carlos Alcaraz are beaten 4-2 4-2 by Jack Draper and Jessica Pegula in the revamped US Open mixed doubles.

But the opening round of matches seemed well-received by the New York crowd. Spectators flocked to the two show courts, Arthur Ashe and Louis Armstrong, in their droves, and loudly backed home favourites including Venus Williams and Reilly Opelka.
