Novak Djokovic had to come from behind to beat Kei Nishikori and keep his bid for a calendar Grand Slam alive as he advanced to the US Open fourth round.
The Serb is aiming for a men's record 21st Grand Slam title.
He will face either Russian 21st seed Aslan Karatsev or American wildcard Jenson Brooksby next.
Top seed Djokovic has received a mixed reception from the New York crowd but appeared to have won them over by the final point.
He asked them to give him more noise several times, cupping his ear toward the fans, and did not do his traditional 'show of love' celebration to the stands.
He did, however, spend some time after his post-match interview signing autographs and giving several young fans items from his kit bag.
