Lulu Sun's Wimbledon Dream Run Ends in Quarterfinals
Historic Fortnight for British Qualifier
Paragraph 1:
Lulu Sun's fairytale run at Wimbledon came to an end on Tuesday, as she was defeated by Croatian qualifier Donna Vekic in the quarterfinals. The British player, who had captured the hearts of the crowd with her impressive performances, fell short in her bid to become the first British woman to reach the Wimbledon semifinals since 1978.
Sun, who is ranked 106th in the world, had been the Cinderella story of this year's tournament. She had come through qualifying to reach the main draw and had then defeated a number of seeded players, including former world No. 1 Simona Halep.
