Wozniacki wallops error-prone Eugenie

HONG KONG - Caroline Wozniacki started the defense of her WTA Hong Kong Open title in rampant style by blowing away Eugenie Bouchard 6-1, 6-1 on Tuesday.

Wozniacki, seeded third and a recent winner of the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo, dominated the first-round match as Bouchard was forced into a cascade of errors.

Wozniacki never looked remotely in trouble against the one-time golden girl of tennis, breaking her serve almost at will, and cruising to victory in only 58 minutes.
