Reaction from players from night matches on Monday (29 August) of the US Open.

SOUNDBITE (English) Jo-Wilfried Tsonga:

"Yeah, I played well enough. I served pretty consistently. Then it was easier for me to put pressure on his serve. So, yeah, I expect to win, of course, before the match, and I did it. So, yeah, that's great."

SOUNDBITE (English) Milos Raonic:

"I was efficient at the end of the day. Three sets; not too much time on court. I would have wished to play better, but it's not the goal to be playing my best tennis in the first round. It's about getting through and giving myself a chance to get better in the next round. Hopefully my level continues to improve."

SOUNDBITE (English) Monica Puig:

"It's always a little bit tough, especially coming off winning the Olympic gold medal. A lot of pressure, a lot of expectation, but I can always continue to learn. That's what I'm going to try and do. All credit to her, though. She played well. She complicated me just enough. But, you know, I'm still learning. I'm still growing. Trying to find the positives out of everything."
