US Open Champion Sloane Stevens scored eighth consecutive loss and finished his Australian Open after his first match. The 13th American lost to Zheng Shuiy (China) with 6:2, 6:7 (2), 2:6. Steven has no win after winning the title in New York. It seemed that the 24-year-old American would end the negative series after a good first set. She even served for the match analyzed by volleyball livescore at 5:4 in the second part. Sloane broke through, then stepped back into the tie and collapsed, with the Chinese dominating the third set.
Dominika Tsibulkova, placed under number 24, also left the tournament in the first round. The 28-year-old Slovakian lost 2:6, 2:6 by Kaya Kanepi (Estonia). After a difficult 2017 in terms of results, Tsibulkova took a 10-week break before starting a new season. Last week she returned to the Sydney court and achieved two victories, but it would obviously take time to reach optimal shape.
