A trial. Led 6-0, 3-0, the French ended up throwing in the towel in the face of abandonment against the Chinese Qinwen Zheng (74th in the world) this Saturday. Physically affected, the Niçoise, quarter-finalist of the last Australian Open, was forced to give up on Center Court, where her ambition to be the only French woman to join the second week ended. Her opponent will face world number 1 Iga Swiatek, who earlier gleaned her 31st victory in a row.
