NEW YORK — Muchova's clinical display saw her dispatch Boulter 6-1 6-0 in their second-round encounter at Flushing Meadows. The Czech player's aggressive baseline game and consistent execution left her British opponent with few opportunities to mount a challenge.
The lopsided scoreline underscored Muchova's current form at the season's final Grand Slam tournament. She maintained control throughout both sets, breaking Boulter's serve multiple times while protecting her own service games with precision.
With the victory, Muchova progressed to the third round where she will face another opponent from the remaining draw. The result marks a strong continuation of her campaign in New York as she pushes deeper into the tournament.
Boulter, competing in the main draw, struggled to find her rhythm against the seventh seed's relentless pressure. The early exit came despite high expectations for the British player's performance in this year's competition.
