Jo-Wilfried Tsonga produced a superb performance to beat Jarkko Nieminen and reach the 3rd round of the US Open for a 3rd successive year.
The French 7th seed produced 45 winners and converted all 3 of us break opportunities as he outmuscled his Finnish opponent 7-5 6-3 6-4.
The 24 year old who has never reached the 4th round at Flushing Meadows faces compatriot Julien Benneteau next.
