Elina Svitolina became the seventh top-10 seed to be knocked out in the French Open’s opening week as she fell in the third round to Barbora Krejcikova.
Fifth seed Svitolina’s serve was broken six times as she was outclassed 6-3 6-2 by the impressive unseeded Czech.
The Ukrainian follows Ashleigh Barty, Naomi Osaka, Karolina Pliskova, Aryna Sabalenka, Belinda Bencic and Bianca Andreescu out of Roland Garros.
However, defending champion Iga Swiatek and fourth seed Sofia Kenin advanced.
