No.188 upsets No.1 at the U.S. Open

1 Comments

Ana Ivanovic of Serbia, ranked No. 1 in the world, bids the U.S. Open early. She lost to Julie Coin of France 6-3, 4-6, 6-3

in the second round last Thursday night. This is the first time since 1968 that the no.1 player lost this early in the tournament. This is what they call the biggest upset in the U.S. Open history. It is Coin's first time to play in a Grand Slam but she did try to qualify for Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon but never made to any of three. Her earnings was less than $100,000 since becoming a pro while Ivanovic had won to almost $6 million already. I am sure this the best game Coin had in her career and this is only the first. Next match for Coin for the third round is Amelie Mauresmo. Good Luck to you Girl!

ano ba yan? What's happening to Ivanovic? She's quite good but getting very inconsistent. I want to see her pa naman in the finals with the Williams sisters.
