CRI听力:Zheng Jie out, Ana Ivanovic Advance at French Open
Chinese duo Zheng Jie and Chan Yung-Jan have failed to reach the last 8 in the women's doubles event at the French Open.
They lost to Spanish pair of Silvia Soler Espinosa and Maria-Teresa Torro-Flor in a three sets battle.
But their journey to Paris hasn't finished yet as they will face off against each other in a quarterfinal game in mixed doubles later tonight.
And in women's singles, former Roland Garros champion Ana Ivanovic advanced to the quarter-finals, the first time since winning the tournament in 2008.
The 27-year-old Serbian got past ninth seed Ekaterina Makarova 7-5, 3-6, 6-1.
"Amazing, really. To be honest, coming into the tournament I didn't really, you know, expect that at all. But I really worked hard for each match. I worked hard even before the tournament to reach the quarter-final again here. It feels amazing. Yeah, very proud the way I played in the third set."
Next up for her will be Elina Svitolina.
On the men's side, Wilfried Tsonga, Kei Nishikori, and Stan Wawrinka are all through to the quarter-finals.
