孙甜甜爆冷赢小威 送卫冕冠军回家
BEIJING - Serena Williams was upset in the second round of the China Open on Wednesday, losing to unheralded Sun Tiantian 6-2, 7-6 (7).
Sun, ranked 127th in the world and fourth among Chinese players, took advantage of numerous errors by Williams, who said she was bothered by an ailing left knee.
"I just played terrible," Williams said. "Sun played very well and was ready for the match. I'm disappointed I couldn't perform better today."
Williams, No. 9 in the world rankings, won last year's event and is very popular in China. However, the crowd cheered as Sun pulled off a surprise victory — the first of her career against a player ranked in the top 40
