Pliskova and Kvitova had no issues advancing to the 2nd round of the US Open after defeating their opponents in straight sets.
The Czech duo of Pliskova and Kvitova had no issues on day one of the US Open when they defeated their opponents in straight sets. Karolina Pliskova demonstrated her good form entering the US Open by demolishing Kalinina in only 63 minutes of play. Despite not hitting the 1st serve at an impressive rate she racked up 7 aces to go along with a 80 % win rate clinching the 1st set 6-4.
She was even more impressive in the 2nd set winning it 6-0 in 21 minutes of play. Circumstances have made Pliskova the first seed at this year's US Open but she certeinly looked like it on the 1st day.
Similar to her compatriot Kvitova had an easy going on day one of the US Open. Her opponent was Irina Begu from Romania and she had no chance against Kvitova. She put a valiant effort in the 1st set which she lost 6-3. The 2nd set was worse for her as she completely capituled particularly on her own serve.
Kvitova continued to play very good from the baseline which allowed her to win break points easily.After some time it was already 4-1 to Kvitova in the 2nd set and from there on she cruised to a 6-2 2nd set victory.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
