- Ajla Tomljanovic led 6-4, 3-0 and is through to quarter-finals

She had handled all of the attention and subsequent pressure in her stride, but on Monday night the toll of her run finally showed as the 18-year-old was forced to retire from the fourth round after suffering from breathing problems while trailing Ajla Tomljanovic 6-4, 3-0.
