Venus Williams upset at hands of Navarro

- 22 Jan 2009

Venus Williams tumbled out of the Australian Open today, losing 2-6, 6-3, 7-5 to 46th-ranked outsider Carla Suarez Navarro of Spain.

Williams hardly looked like the current Wimbledon champion against the 20-year-old Suarez Navarro, whose previous records in the Grand Slams are nothing to write home about.

Suarez Navarro broke twice in the second set as Williams let a number of reachable shots fly past. She saved a match point while serving at 4-5 in the deciding set and broke Williams in the next game, aided by a double-fault from the American. The game over ran the expected schedule causing Andy Murray's match against Granollers to be more than an hour late.
