Paolini on track to advance

And we have our first winner of Day 6 at Flushing Meadows!

Muchova clearly has something planned this afternoon as she took just an hour and 14 minutes to ease past Potapova and into the fourth round (6-4, 6-2).

A very convincing performance from the Czech world No. 52 and she will face either Paolini or Putintseva in the next round.

Machac, meanwhile, continues to make light work of Goffin on Stadium 17 as he is two sets and a break ahead (6-3, 6-1, *2-1) — I don’t think it’ll be long until he Joins Muchova in today’s imaginary winners’ enclosure.
