Andrey Rublev battled dizziness and hunger but found an unusual mid-match rescue in New York
Rublev raced to a 2-set lead, but suddenly felt dizzy as Tristan Boyer staged a fightback
Emergency sushi delivery mid-match kept Rublev alive, as he battled hunger and low sugar levels
Rublev joked he might break the banana-eating record next time to avoid dizziness
Despite the scare, Rublev closed out a thrilling 6-3, 6-3, 5-7, 7-6(4) win to reach Round 3
Rublev now faces history-maker Coleman Wong, the first Hong Kong man to win a Grand Slam match
