The Polish top seed, who has never gone past the fourth round in New York, wrapped up a 6-3, 6-0 in 1hr 7min on the Louis Armstrong Stadium. Swiatek, the reigning French Open champion, will face either Belgium's Greet Minnen or 2017 US Open champion Sloane Stephens in the second round.
The men's and women's events in Ohio, the big stop leading into New York, where unseeded players came up trumps, ostensibly hit a palimpsest note. Borna Coric, who was ranked 152 at the start of the tournament, sidelined for a year with a right shoulder injury, won the men's title. The 25-year-old Croatian is the lowest-ranked player ever to win a Masters 1000. The women's winner was France's Caroline Garcia, the first qualifier ever to win a WTA 1000 title. Surprises aside there are promises of big strikes this fortnight. Medvedev, the wiry Russian, is in a five-way chase for the top spot in the rankings with Rafael Nadal being in pole position. Nadal, winner of the Australian and French Opens, is in pursuit of a fifth title in New York. The 36-year-old is not defending any points as he didn't play here last year. Medvedev, the world No. 1 along with the fourth-seeded Stefanos Tsitsipas, Carlos Alcaraz and Casper Ruud need deep runs to challenge the Spaniard.
Not everyone, Sloane Stephens accepts, is comfortable being as candid as she is when it comes to matters of women’s health.
Serena Williams will face Danka Kovinic in the opening round of her final US Open appearance. The 23-time major winner announced earlier in the summer that she would bring the curtain down on her career at Flushing Meadows. Ad Emma Raducanu arrives in New York as the defending champion, but the Brit has a tough opening challenge as she will face off against French veteran Alize Cornet.
Rain disrupted the opening day of the men's Canadian Open in Montreal, with a four-hour delay forcing the postponement of Andy Murray's match against Taylor Fritz. Inclement weather saw just two points of tennis played across the three courts in Quebec before 4pm local time (9pm BST). Ad Francisco Cerundolo and Karen Khachanov briefly appeared on court between showers, but soon exited at 15-all in their first game.
It has been another week the US Open champion may want to forget, but how can Briton get her season back on track ahead of this month's major in New York? Telegraph Sport explains. . .
Eighth-seeded Marie Bouzkova of the Czech Republic won her first career WTA Tour title in a convincing 6-0, 6-3 triumph over seventh-seeded Anastasia Potapova on Sunday in the final of the Prague Open.
PRAGUE (AP) — Eighth-seeded Marie Bouzkova cruised past seventh-seeded Anastasia Potapova 6-0, 6-3 on Sunday to win the Prague Open for her first WTA title.
