Tennis: Anne Keothavong loses in first round at Strasbourg

GB’s Anne Keothavong was knocked out of the Strasbourg International yesterday by Mirjana Lucic of Germany, 2-6 7-5 6-4.

Britain’s number two made a flying start against the world number 119 before fading badly against a player ranked 43 places lower than her.

Despite securing the first set, Hackney-born Keothavong followed fellow Briton Elena Baltacha out of the event.

Baltacha suffered a first round defeat by Stephanie Foetz Gacon on Monday losing 6-4 6-0.
