NEW YORK (AP) – The Latest on the US Open (all times local):
1:40 p.m.
No. 5 seed Petra Kvitova has moved into the fourth round of the U.S. Open with a 6-2, 6-1 win against 32nd-seeded Anna Karolina Schmiedlova of Slovakia.
It will be Kvitova’s third appearance in the fourth round at Flushing Meadows. The two-time Wimbledon champion also accomplished the feat in 2009 and 2012, but she has never made it to the semifinals in the last Grand Slam of the year.
Kvitova never presented Schmiedlova with a break opportunity in the 66-minute match. The Czech star converted five of her nine break chances.
