the czech Karolina Muchova qualified for the quarterfinals of Roland Garros for the first time in his career after defeating the Russian Elina Avanesiansaved from the previous stage, by 6-4 and 6-3.
The 26-year-old world number 43 will be measured against the Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, 2021 finalist, who, after almost a year’s absence from the slopes due to injury, returned to the highest level and defeated the Belgian Elise Mertens, leader of series 28, by 3-6, 7-6 (3) and 6-3.
Muchova will play in the quarterfinals of a major for the fourth time, having done so at Wimbledon in 2019 and 2021, when she reached the semifinals at the Australian Open.
Following her first-round win over eighth seed Maria Sakkari of Greece, the Czech defeated Argentina’s Nadia Podoroska in the second round and Romanian Irina-Camelia Begu, the 27th seed, in the third.
