2010 U.S. Open First Round Result: Mardy Fish Roars Past Jan Hajek

American Mardy Fish prevailed in bizarre fashion Tuesday, beating Jan Hajek, 6-0, 3-6, 4-6, 6-0, 6-1, in the first round of the 2010 U.S. Open. Afterward, the No. 19 seed admitted he wasn’t sure what happened during the second and third sets.

“Sometimes a 6-0 set, it can be a kiss of death,” Fish said in his post-match interview.

The newly slimmed down Fish used a deadly serve -- he aced Hajek 24 times -- to pull away late. He also racked up 52 winners, 20 more than Hajek.
