Alexandr Dolgopolov has defeated Marcos Baghdatis in four sets to make it into the third round of the US Open at Flushing Meadows.
The 14th seed took the opening set 6-4 but was pegged back by the flamboyant Cypriot 6-3 in the second.
However, the Russian was soon back on top with an emphatic 6-0 win in the third.
In an up-and-down fourth, Baghdatis missed the opportunity to serve out the set twice before it went to a tie-break.
Dolgopolov then earned three mini-breaks off his opponent to seal the win 7-5.
