Genie Bouchard managed to halt a long streak after winning the opener in Rome in the first round to immediately fail in the second.
To be fair the Canadian Beauty had to face a very tough clay court specialist, Carla Suarez Navarro, but still she hasn’t managed to find a solution once again.
Genie lost 6-7(2), 7-5, 7-6(7) after 3 hours and 2 minutes to waste a match points in the third set tiebreak when she was 7-6 up. Match Stats.
Suarez Navarro will now face Kvitova in the quarters. The Spaniard might be rather tired for that. Head to head is 5-4 for the Czech.
BATTLING, BUT NO LUCK… |
7/7 WIN LOSS RECORD, NOT COOL FOR GENIE |
