Great Britain's Kyle Edmund is through to the second qualifying round of this year's US Open after beating Peter Polansky of Canada in straight sets.

South African-born Edmund progressed with a 6-3 6-4 triumph completed in just under an hour and a quarter.

The 20-year-old is bidding for what would be a maiden appearance in the first round proper of the senior US Open having already made the breakthrough in each of the other three majors, with the Australian and French Open achievements coming earlier this year.
