Britain’s top seeds Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash have suffered a shock first-round exit at the US Open.<\/p>\n

The pair, who this summer became the first all-British partnership to win the Wimbledon men’s doubles title<\/a> for 89 years, were beaten 7-6 (8-6) 7-6 (7-4) by American Robert Galloway and Austrian Alexander Erler.<\/p>\n

Cash and Glasspool have won titles at four of the last six events they have entered since the French Open, including in Toronto earlier this month.<\/p>\n

But the pair looked fatigued as they succumbed to defeat in two tight sets.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, British sixth seeds Neal Skupski and Joe Salisbury cruised past American pair George Goldhoff and Reese Stalder in a 6-3 6-4 win.<\/p>\n

Briton Luke Johnson and his Dutch partner Sander Arends, the 13th seeds, came through their first-round match 6-2 6-4 against Italian Mattia Bellucci and Fabian Marozsan.<\/p>\n

In the women’s doubles, Katie Boulter and Sonay Kartal progressed to the second round with a 6-1 5-7 7-6 (10-5) win over China’s Tang Qianhui and American Sabrina Santamaria.<\/p>\n

The Britons, whose respective singles campaigns ended in the first round, had match point at 5-3 in the deciding set, but a nervy service game from Boulter shifted the momentum and instead the pair needed a tie-break to win a thrilling contest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Britain’s top seeds Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash have suffered a shock first-round exit at the US Open.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":104970,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[565],"tags":[64,63,85,747],"class_list":{"0":"post-104969","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104969","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104969"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104969\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104969"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104969"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104969"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
