Ruthless Muchova Routs Boulter to Reach US Open Third Round

  • On Wednesday, Czech seventh seed Karolina Muchova defeated British number one Katie Boulter 6-1, 6-0 at the US Open, with the match moved to the 14,000-capacity Louis Armstrong Stadium following heavy rain in New York.
  • Muchova, a Wimbledon runner-up, demonstrated ruthless form throughout, while Boulter struggled after a disappointing season where she won just two of six matches since Wimbledon.
  • The 58-minute demolition saw Muchova land 14 winners while Boulter won just 33% of points behind her first serve and committed 21 unforced errors, failing to hold any service games.
  • Muchova advances to the third round at Flushing Meadows, where she will face the winner of the all-American clash between Emma Navarro and Caty McNally, saying, "I was happy about my composure."
  • Former world number five Daniela Hantuchova told BBC Radio 5 Live that Boulter should "change something big time," emphasizing the need to address her serve and rhythm issues.
