NEW YORK -- Madison Keys slept until almost 11 a.m. Monday. She didnt arrive at Arthur Ashe Stadium until 6:30 p.m., knowing that a late night on court awaited her.Keys and fellow American Alison Riske didnt envision it going quite so late. Their first-round U.S. Open match didnt end until 1:48 a.m. Tuesday.It was the latest finish for a womens match in tournament history -- typically the women play first and the men second in the night session, so six mens matches have ended later.The first night matches of the U.S. Open always start later because of the opening ceremony, but more often than not theyre routs with a top player facing an unseeded opponent.But on Monday, No. 1 Novak Djokovic was pushed to four sets, then Riske and Keys went three.The eighth-seeded Keys rallied from down a set and a break to win 4-6, 7-6 (5), 6-2 in 2 hours, 26 minutes.Both players said they werent particularly aware on court of how late it was.Now that Im a part of it, yay, Keys said of setting a record. Lets not try to break it.Asked if shes a night owl, Riske said simply: No.Keys, meanwhile, is definitely not a morning person.This time of morning, I am, she said in her on-court interview shortly before 2 a.m. At 6 a.m., 7 a.m., Im not a good person.The 60th-ranked Riske had two points on her serve at 5-4 in the second-set tiebreaker to try to close out the match, but Keys won them both and clinched the set on the next point.Riske has lost 10 straight Grand Slam matches. Shes 2-16 against top-10 opponents, though one of the victories came against Petra Kvitova as Riske reached the round of 16 at the 2013 U.S. Open.Its only a matter of time that things start turning my way, she said.Keys took a medical timeout in the second set to have a trainer work on her right shoulder. She said it was just soreness and she didnt expect it to be an issue going forward.Keys hasnt lost in the first round at a major since the 2014 French Open. The 21-year-old is coming off a run to the Olympic semifinals, but she pulled out of the hard-court tuneup at New Haven because of a neck injury.

Riyad Mahrezs 34th-minute goal condemned Palace to their sixth success home Premier League loss.Although they are still eight points above the relegation zone, they have not won in the league since December 19 and face three of the top six in their next four matches, before their FA Cup semi-final with Watford. Riyad Mahrez of Leicester City celebrates winner We need to get a couple of wins and get them before the semi-final to give ourselves some breathing space, Pardew told Sky Sports. We have some difficult games but this is a team that can win at any time, we have proved that in the first half of the season and in the cup.But in the second half of the season we havent had that win that would have taken some pressure off. We handled it well today but it just wouldnt come for us.The closest Palace came to equalising was in second-half injury-time when Damien Delaney volleyed against the bar. Scott Dann admits Crystal Palace need to end their winless run as soon as possible We are on a tricky run and things are not falliing for us, said Pardew.dddddddddddd We tried to force it today and make sure our performance was at a level where we could overcome the fortune of the game. We almost achieved that, but not quite. Leicester definitely shaded the first half and looked the team that would go on to win, but we played very well in the second half and caused them some problems, which is difficult to do as they are a very organised team.While it was another disappointing result for Palace, Leicester are now eight points clear at the top of the table with seven games left to play. Phil Thompson gives his reaction to the result on Soccer Saturday They would be worthy champions in terms of their performance today, said Pardew. It was a difficult game for us and I thought we played reasonably well, particularly in the second half, but they came away with the win, and thats the sign of a good team.They have such speed and they are effortless going forward at times. They found a way, what won them the game was their defensive discipline. The midfield two did not give us any stake or anything to cling to so we could break. It had to be outstanding play from us to create a chance.
