The Czech ninth seed will meet American hope Peyton Stearns in the next round.
Marketa Vondrousova reacts after defeating Ekaterina Alexandrova 6-2, 6-1 in the third round of the US Open.
The Czech ninth seed, who made her Grand Slam breakthrough at the All England Club last month, has flown under the radar in New York and came into the clash with her Russian opponent having dropped only seven games. Alexandrova continued to look shaky on her delivery in the next set and allowed Vondrousova to surge ahead 4-0 with a third double fault of the contest before finally producing a hold two games later to avoid a bagel.
“I felt really good,” said Vondrousova, who will meet American hope Peyton Stearns in the next round.
