American concedes she made too many errors. FMTNews AustraliaOpen

DUBAI: Sofia Kenin lost her first WTA match since winning the Australian Open earlier this month as she went down 6-7 , 6-3, 6-3 to Elena Rybakina on Tuesday at the Dubai Championships.

American Kenin played a pair of non-Tour Fed Cup matches immediately after her Melbourne win over Garbine Muguruza, who cut short Kim Clijsters’ comeback on Monday. “I just didn’t feel my game really well. I just made too many unforced errors, I didn’t take my chances. I felt really off the whole match.”Rybakina then dominated the next two sets to reach the second round where she will face Czech Katerina Siniakova.“I prepared with good practice. I didn’t expect that I would win. I tried to do my best,” she said.“I didn’t think about that she just won the Australian Open, I know that now everyone can beat everyone,” she added.

“You go out there and you just don’t feel anything. I just kept on fighting, still trying to hit every ball, trying to be there. Weekend ATP Rotterdam winner Gael Monfils watched in pain as girlfriend Svitolina went down to Brady.
