Marketa Vondrousova on Tuesday turned into the first shielding Wimbledon ladies’ hero in quite a while to be taken out in the principal round when she was staggered by world number 83 Jessica Bouzas Maneiro. The 21-year-old Spaniard prevailed 6-4, 6-2 over the 6th positioned Czech, who last year was the principal unseeded lady to come out on top for the championship at the All Britain Club. German legend Steffi Graf was the last reigning champ to lose in the initial round, when she was beaten by Lori McNeil in 1994. Until Tuesday she had never crushed a main 40 player, while her main other grass-court match this year was a first-round misfortune in a serene occasion in Italy.
“I think this is quite possibly of the main second in my life and profession,” said Bouzas Maneiro.
“She is quite possibly of the best player on the planet so there was no tension for me. I could simply partake in the second and play unreservedly.”
She added: “I’m truly astonished with myself. I was somewhat apprehensive toward the beginning yet the air was pleasant to the point that I felt more agreeable. I felt at ease.”
Bouzas Maneiro will confront either Ana Bogdan of Romania or Spanish comrade Cristina Bucsa for a spot in the last 32.
Vondrousova had shown up in London as a wellness uncertainty subsequent to harming her right hip in a fall at the Berlin grass-court competition last month.
