Krejcikova was in tears at the back of the court before serving to stay in the match, won by American Emma Navarro in three sets.

The two-time Grand Slam winner held her serve but was soon defeated by the No10 seed.

Krejcikova struggled throughout the third set and was regularly hunched over between points.

It brought back memories of compatriot Jana Novotna crying on the shoulder of the Duchess of Kent during the 1993 final, won by Steffi Graf.
