British No 1 Katie Boulter is out of the National Bank Open in Toronto after defeat to world No 3 Aryna Sabalenka, while top seed Coco Gauff suffered a shock loss to Diana Shnaider. Boulter was unable to take any of the eight break points she manufactured in a competitive match and Sabalenka converted three from three to win 6-3 6-3 and advance to the quarter-finals.
She played steady and she didn't give me any free points. 'I question whether I should have played or not, but I wanted to test myself. 'I didn't have high expectations, but I wish I could have competed better today, even if it resulted in a loss. I don't think I competed well.' Shnaider said: 'I know Coco is very physically prepared for everyone on tour, and she's running very well - she's covering all of the balls and all the angles on the court.
