Britain's Johanna Konta out in second round of Wimbledon

Britain's Konta out in second round

Great Britain's Johanna Konta has been beaten in the second round of Wimbledon by Canada's Eugenie Bouchard.

Konta produced a brilliant second set to level the scores entering the decider, but a strong Bouchard finish saw the 22-year-old record a 6-3 1-6 6-1 victory over Britain's number one in the English capital.

It was Konta that secured an early advantage in the first set after breaking at 1-1, but Bouchard responded with two breaks of her own and indeed back-to-back holds to move ahead in the second-round match.

Konta produced her best tennis in the second as she secured two breaks on her way to a 6-1 victory and backed by a vocal home support, the 25-year-old forced a third set in London.

It was Bouchard that dominated from that point forward, however, securing two more breaks on her way to claiming the third 6-1 and booking a spot in the third round of the competition.
