Sonay Kartal of Britain missed the opportunity to reach the first Grand Slam quarter-finals with the defeat by Anastasia Paviluchenkova in a match, with a dispute over a faulty line call.
It was a heroic attempt from 23-year-old, which eventually experienced 7-6 (7-3) 6-4 and discovered that former French Open Finalist Paviluchekova came to know.
At 51 rank in the world, Kartal was already enjoying his best run at a Grand Slam, which never went beyond the third round.
She had been aiming to become the first British woman to reach the quarter -finals in SW19 since Johana Konta in 2019.
This time she was in place outside the top 250 players in the world last year, but this week her efforts at All England Club will get a new career-high ranking after the tournament.
The emerging star of British tennis will rest in its achievements – winning a top -20 player in the first round, flexibility to come from back when needed and the beginning of a memorable center court in front of a biased crowd at the Grand Slam of his home.
World No. 50 Paviluchenkova, Vijay for 34, matches her 2016 run in the quarter-finals at Grass-Cort Major and will face 30th seed Linda Noskova or 14th seeded seed Anisimova.
