Czech tennis player Petra Kvitová also managed the match of the 2nd round against the Russian Veronica Kuděrmětová in Cincinnati.
Canadian Bianka Andreescuová received the service of a Czech player in the duel with Karolína Muchová right in the first game, but that was the last thing she could enjoy in the duel. In addition, the Czech Republic was able to erase the shortage immediately. When she broke the Canadian service again in the ninth game, Muchová won the set with a ratio of 6: 4.
In the second act for a change, the Canadian lost the performance at the beginning and Muchová continued to dictate what was happening on the court. Until the end of the set, Andreescu did not hold the serve twice more, the Czech Republic had the match under control. She controlled the set with a ratio of 6: 2 and could celebrate the process.

Muchová’s next opponent will be the American Shelby Rogers, or the Olympic winner Belinda Bencicová from Switzerland, who defeated Markéta Vondroušová in the first round as well as in the recent final of the Games in Tokyo.
Although Kvitová did not manage the first game of the match with Ruska Kuděrmětová, it did not decide her at all. In the further course of the first set, the opponent took the service three times and won it 6: 2. As a hurricane, the Czech favorite continued to lead and led 3: 0. However, she complicated the path for progress when she leveled Russia to 4: 4. However, the finish again belonged to Kvitová, she won two more games and she can look forward to another match in Cincinnati, USA.
Two and a half hours after midnight, the finalist from Montreal, Karolína Plíšková, who had a free draw in the first round, will present herself in her first match at the tournament. In the second, Kazakh Putintseva is waiting for her, whom she has always managed to beat in the previous four matches.
