Boulter Crushed at US Open

British No 1 Katie Boulter suffers a crushing 6-1, 6-0 defeat to seventh seed Karolina Muchova in the second round of the US Open.

Boulter's grand slam season came to a bitter end as she was outclassed by Muchova in New York. The match was played indoors under retractable roofs due to heavy rain, offering no escape for the British player. chincha.pl

This defeat continues Boulter's recent poor form. Despite a promising start to the season that included a WTA title in Ostrava and a win over world No 2 Elena Rybakina at Queen's, her performance has stalled, including her marriage to fellow player Alex de Minaur in July.
