    French Open: Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova upsets world number three Sabalenka in third round

    Women's world number three Aryna Sabalenka has been knocked out of the 2021 French Open. Russia's Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova trounced her 6-4, 2-6, 6-0 after an intense third-round battle. Sabalenka, who won the Madrid Open earlier this year, had made a promising start to her Roland Garros campaign by winning the first two rounds. However, the ruthless Pavlyuchenkova has ended her campaign.

    How did the match pan out?

    Sabalenka comfortably won the first three games in the opening set. However, Pavlyuchenkova broke her serve twice to win the set. The former gained momentum in the following set, having won 6-2 from 2-2. Although Pavlyuchenkova took a medical time-out after the second set, she didn't lose her focus. She reeled off the first five games in quick succession before winning the match point.

    Sabalenka loses her third clay-court match this season

    Sabalenka has lost her third clay-court match this season. The 23-year-old now has a win-loss record of 13-3 on clay. Notably, Sabalenka had defeated Pavlyuchenkova 6-2, 6-3 in the Madrid Open semi-finals this year. The former is now 27-8 in the season.

    Pavlyuchenkova through to fourth round for the second time

    In the match, Pavlyuchenkova converted 5 out of 10 break points, and fired 22 winners against 16 unforced errors. The 29-year-old has proceeded to the fourth round of Roland Garros for the first time since 2011, and just the second time in her career. She will next face former world number one Victoria Azarenka, who defeated Madison Keys 6-2, 6-2.

    A stunning victory for Pavlyuchenkova
