Despite going down in the third round of the US Open, it was a week of encouragement and reward for John Millman - and it's not over yet.

John Millman has turned his attention to doubles and adding to the biggest pay day of his career after bowing out of the US Open singles in New York.
Australia’s last man standing went down 7-5 6-2 6-4 to tough German Philipp Kohlschreiber, but can look forward to a cheque for at least $US166,500 ($A210,000) for his run to the third round at Flushing Meadows for the first time.
The 28-year-old will also soar some 60 places in the rankings to around 180th in the world as he continues his comeback from groin surgery.
