Entry elimination for Joanne Züger (WTA 167) at the tournament in Chennai, India. The Baloise lost to the Canadian Eugenie Bouchard (902) 7-6 6-2. Opposed to the 2014 Wimbledon finalist and former 5th player in the world, Züger tied the game in the 1st set and missed a set point.
More at ease on clay, Joanne Züger is not really used to hard courts. But one would have thought that once morest a player returning from injury, the 21-year-old Baloise would have a chance.
Bouchard shows up in the Indian metropolis with a wild card. The 28-year-old, who is currently down to 902nd in the standings, only recently returned to the tour following a long break and surgery on her right shoulder.
