Robson suffers Nottingham defeat

Monday, 15 June, 2009

Britain's Laura Robson was defeated in the third of her exhibition matches against Ukrainian Olga Savchuk at the Nottingham Masters on Sunday afternoon as she continued her preparations for Wimbledon.

Robson, 15, who is set to become the youngest player to appear in the women's tournament at SW19 since Martina Hingis played in 1995 at the age of 14, lost 6-4 6-4 to an opponent six years her senior.

The reigning Wimbledon girls' champion had beaten Savchuk in a super tie-breaker on Saturday, after losing their initial encounter in similar circumstances on Friday.
