MADRID, May 5 — World number two Petra Kvitova made an impressive start to the defence of her Madrid Open title by beating America’s Sofia Kenin 6-1, 6-4 yesterday.
Barbora Strycova or Kristina Mladenovic now await in the second round for Kvitova, who is attempting to follow up her success in Stuttgart last week with another strong run ahead of the French Open later this month. The 20-year-old Kenin has climbed to number 37 in the rankings after only breaking into the top 100 last year but she was no match for the power of Kvitova, who is chasing a record-extending fourth Madrid title.
