Karolina Muchova

Current form
Mukhova started in Indian Wells immediately from the second round and did not experience any special problems in the duel with Kocharetto (6-4, 6-3). Karolina had a significant advantage at the reception, making five breaks at once. However, she couldn't work out clearly on her serve – her opponent scored three breaks. The Czech tennis player does not defend her ranking points on local courts, as she did not play here a year ago.

However, Sinyakova is clearly on the move now, and the crushing victory over Putintseva clearly demonstrated that Katerina should not be underestimated.
