Like a bus, Irish tennis players go decades with qualifying for any Grand Slam, and now two have made the opening round of Flushing Meadows.
Both have plum draws, with Wimbledon hero Conor Niland facing Novak Djokovic, while Australian Open participant Louk Sorensen (who, I thought, had retired) up against Robin Soderling. Interestingly, it seems Sergey Bubka's son (of the same name) has also qualified for the first round.
