FOUR MINUTES INTO their Women’s Doubles match against the 16th seeds, Monica Niculescu and Klara Koukalova were an early break up and serving for a 2-0 lead.
With opponents Garbine Muguruza and Carla Suarez Navarro at the opposite end of the court, Koukalova let rip with a serve that clocked a shade over 120kph. Unfortunately for Koukalova, and more unfortunately for her doubles partner, the errant serve clattered Niculescu in the back of the head.

The Romanian was forced to take a seat for two minutes before returning to the court. To make matters worse, the Czech-Romanian duo lost 2-6, 6-4, 4-6 and were eliminated.
