Two-time major champion Barbora Krejcikova of Czechia overcame the in-form Victoria Mboko, the recently-crowned Montreal winner, in one of the most eye-catching first-round matchups in the women's singles at the US Open, getting the better of the 18-year-old from Canada in straight sets here on Monday.
The world No.2 becomes the first American to win the Roland Garros singles title since Serena Williams in 2015, and the youngest American since Serena Williams in 2002.
