Keys Solid in Opener
Madison Keys made a solid start to the tournament as she came back from a break down twice to beat Marie Bouzkova of the Czech Republic in straight sets.
The American, ranked no. 11 in the world, was broken to love in the third game of the first set, but she responded immediately and drew level in the next game. Keys then broke for a second time in the 10th game to take the first set.
Bouzkova broke again in the third game of the second set, but once again Keys broke back immediately and then went up a break in the eighth game before sealing the contest 6-4, 6-3.

Niemeier Suffers Loss Against Bouzkova
Jule Niemeier suffered a loss to Marie Bouzkova in a Group C singles rubber between Germany and the Czech Republic on Saturday. With Alexander Zverev also losing his singles match, Germany ended the day, trailing the Czech side 0-2.
Niemeier lost the first set easily but gave Bouzkova a tough fight in the closing stages, saving two match points on Bouzkova’s serve at 5-4, and sending the set back on serve. But Bouzkova broke back immediately to restore her break advantage and then sealed the match in the next game for a 6-2, 7-5 victory.
The German, who converted seven break points in the match, converted the only break point that she held, but was broken seven times in the one hour and 50 minute match.
Niemeier caught the eye at Wimbledon last season. The German, who made her Grand Slam debut at the French Open, reached the quarterfinals at the All England club, in what was just her second major tournament.
The 23-year-old also broke into the top 100 for the first time in 2022, reaching a career-high ranking of 61 in November.
A relative unknown till last season, she also captured her first WTA 125 title in 2022 by beating Elisabetta Cocciaretto in the Makarska final. The clay court title was her second on the surface as she also won an ITF title on clay.
She has played bulk of her matches so far on clay and has a 16-16 record on hard courts in competitive tennis so far. Although she did reach the fourth round of her US Open debut in 2022 she still has a lot to prove on hard courts and that may hamper her chances against the vastly experienced Keys on Monday.
