 Clijsters has not contested a Grand Slam since the 2007 Australian Open
|
Former world number one Kim Clijsters marked her Grand Slam return with a 6-1 6-1 thumping of Ukraine's Viktoriya Kutusova in round one of the US Open.
Clijsters, 26, retired in 2007 and is making her first appearance in New York since winning the 2005 title.
The Belgian dominated Kutusova from the outset and, with five breaks of serve, stormed through in 54 minutes to meet Marion Bartoli or Rossana De Los Rios.
Defending champion Serena Williams and sister Venus also play on Monday.
Elsewhere, eighth seed Victoria Azarenka made light work of Romania's Alexandra Dulgheru to progress.
Azarenka has been tipped by many as an outsider for the title and the Belarusian won 6-1 6-1 to set up a second round meeting with Poland's Marta Domachowska or Barbora Zahlavova Strycova of the Czech Republic.
