Andreescu out of Wimbledon after straight-sets loss to Rybakina

Canada's Bianca Andreescu is out of Wimbledon after dropping a 6-4, 7-6 (7-5) decision to Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan on Thursday.

Rybakina fired four aces to Andreescu's two, and converted on three of four break points.

Rybakina also won 80 per cent of her first-serve points, while Andreescu won 65 per cent of hers.

"It's going to be a challenging one on grass for sure," Tsitsipas said about facing Kyrgios. "He's a big opponent for this surface."

Kyrgios beat 26th-seeded Filip Krajinovic 6-2, 6-3, 6-1 on No. 2 Court, showing off an array of shot-making that included 50 winners, 24 aces and a couple of crowd-pleasing "tweeners."

Kyrgios never faced a break point and looked fully focused throughout the match, without getting into any major
