Tennis star Nick Kyrgios fumes over fan smoking marijuana in second-round win
The Wimbledon runner-up repeatedly berated his box as he beat French world number 50 Benjamin Bonzi 7-6 (7-3) 6-4 4-6 6-4.
The Australian swore several times and was given a warning in the third set.
Earlier in the day, Norway's fifth seed Casper Ruud beat Tim van Rijthoven.
The 23-year-old won 6-7 (4-7) 6-4 6-4 6-4 to reach the US Open third round for the second time and will face American 29th seed, Tommy Paul.
"I'm just happy to get through," said Kyrgios, who plays American world number 87, JJ Wolf, next.
"It's been a stressful time. My team and I have big expectations. Every tournament I play, I'm expected to play fantastic tennis every time.
"I'd rather have that pressure and expectation to go far. I feel like I'm playing some of the best tennis of my life."
