PARIS, France
Muguruza overcame a slow start against anna Karolina schmiedlova to book her place in the second round of the French open.
In a performance that mirrored her season, Muguruza struggled for consistency throughout, eventually subduing Schmiedlova's spirited challenge to run out a 3-6, 6-3, 6-3 winner.
The match was one of the many that fell victim to Sunday's inclement weather, and when they did finally make it onto court, Muguruza looked like she would rather still be in the changing room.
Schmiedlova arrived in Paris on the back of 11 straight defeats, but she put these woes to one side to build a 4-1 lead. With Muguruza's groundstrokes continuing to misfire, this cushion proved enough to give her the first set and as she continued to exert pressure at the start of the second an upset looked on the cards.
