Highlights:
Day two: Dart suffers narrow defeat to Tauson in opening round
British No.3 Harriet Dart has bowed out in the opening round the China Open after she came out on the losing side of a three-set battle against Denmark’s Clara Tauson, in 5-7, 6-4, 6-1 victory in two hours and 45 minutes.
After saving nine break points on her way to taking a one set lead, Dart looked to be firing as she raced ahead to a 4-1 victory. However, the Danish world No.72 soon sparked alight in a desperate attempt to turn things around.
Tauson went on to win 11 of the next 12 games to secure one of the best comeback victories of her career and book her spot in the second round.
Despite the disappointment for Dart, she’ll be back in doubles action on Friday where she’s set to compete alongside American Ashlyn Krueger.
