Boulter Crushed 6-1, 6-0 at US Open

British No.1 Katie Boulter was emphatically beaten 6-1, 6-0 by seventh seed Karolina Muchova in the second round of the US Open, continuing her recent poor form in grand slam tournaments.

British No.1 Katie Boulter suffered a humiliating defeat at the US Open, losing 6-1, 6-0 to seventh seed Karolina Muchova in the second round. The match played under the roof of Arthur Ashe Stadium during a downpour saw Boulter outclassed by her Czech opponent.

This defeat continues Boulter's recent poor form in major tournaments. Despite a promising start to the season that included a WTA title win and victory over world No.2 Elena Rybakina, her grand slam season has ended bitterly in New York. The British player had a life-changing summer, marrying fellow player Alex de Minaur in July. freshyourfeel.com
