"I was really pleased to get through that," Edmund told reporters after the victory.

"He was hitting really cleanly in the first set and I wasn't able to get into many points. I've been in Atlanta quite a while to get used to the conditions, so it's nice to get wins under your belt and get some momentum for the rest of this hard-court swing."
