Kvitova Makes a Good Start
Petra Kvitova, playing at the U.S. Open for a 15th time, made a good start as she defeated qualifier Erika Andreeva in straight sets on Tuesday.
The Czech, who has been in great form over the last couple of months, converted 4 of 4 break points to beat the Russian 7-6 (7-3), 6-0. But it wasn’t a very confident start from the 21st seed, who dropped serve early in the opening set. Andreeva couldn’t close out the set as Kvitova fought back, taking the opening set in the tiebreak.
As the match progressed, the World no. 21 grew in confidence and breezed past the World No. 30 in the second set to complete a 7-6 (7-3), 6-0 victory.
Kvitova, who struck 5 aces and 18 winners during the match, dropped just three points on her serve and four points on return during the second set drubbing.
A two-time U.S. Open quarterfinalist, Kvitova has now won 13 of her 15 first round matches at the U.S. Open.
The two-time Wimbledon champion came into the tournament as the Cincinnati Open runner-up. She had also won her 29th career title this year, in Eastbourne.
Having got off to a good start she will now be looking to reach the third round at the U.S. Open for the 12th time in her career.

Kalinina Ousts Pera
Given the form that Bernarda Pera has displayed over the past two months, Anhelina Kalinina’s win over the American lefty in the first round came as a surprise.
The Ukrainian, who had won just one main draw match in her last six tournaments, needed an hour and 34 minutes to beat the World No. 45, 6-4, 6-4.
Ranked No. 47 in the world, Kalinina had done well in the early part of the season, reaching the last eight in Charleston, Madrid and Eastbourne.
Tuesday’s win improved her season record to 22-18, from all tournaments including qualifiers.
Kalinina didn’t hit an ace and struck just three winners in the match. In contrast her opponent hit 14 winners and three aces. But the Ukrainian had a better break point conversion rate, converting 4 of 7 break points and saving 4 of 6. She also made three double faults fewer than Pera’s 10 and had 29 unforced errors in the match, 13 fewer than the American.
Kvitova v Kalinina Prediction and Tip
Kvitova has a been a consistent performer in recent times and she will be the favourite to win this contest. Expect her to progress for a third round meeting with either Garbiñe Muguruza or Linda Fruhvirtova.
