WTA
Still navigating through the first round of this US Open 2025, the list of seeded players who have been eliminated continues to grow. If on Sunday we had four names bidding farewell prematurely, today six more have been added, both in the men's and women's draw. It's inevitable, it's the law of sport, where nothing is certain. Let's briefly review the biggest disappointments of this second day in New York.

She fought until the end and made everyone believe that a comeback was possible, but ultimately Venus Williams was eliminated in the first round of the US Open 2025.

Although natural law stated that Karolina Muchova should easily defeat Venus Williams in the first round of the US Open 2025, we know that with some players, nothing can be taken for granted. This is exactly what the American demonstrated, pushing a third set at 45 years old against a much younger opponent. In the end, the Czech took the win, and later during the press conference, she reflected on how she managed the tense moments of the match.
“I lost concentration in the second set, she started hitting great shots, there was a lot of noise out there, and that led me to lose my serve. The truth is, I allowed her to play, so I then focused on regaining my service percentage, being more focused; I think I did very well in the third set. I believe Venus played very well tonight; she is a legend of our sport, competing across so many generations. It's clear she still loves playing; it's very nice to see her,” noted Karolina after her 6-3, 2-6, 6-1 victory.

Difficult start to a Grand Slam tournament was the one shown by Mirra Andreeva tonight in New York. The Russian knows that she has been flying under the radar on the tour for a few months, so she has decided to take this US Open as a personal exam, an event where she wants to display her best version once again. This was paid for in the first round by Alycia Parks, who didn't even realize what hit her, mercilessly beaten in 55 minutes on the clock (6-0, 6-1). Conchita Martínez's pupil is already intimidating at Flushing Meadows.
