Australian Open 2015: Petra Kvitova beaten by Madison Keys
Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova is out of the Australian
Open after a 6-4 7-5 defeat by 19-year-old Madison Keys.
The American teenager broke the Czech fourth seed at 5-5 in the
final set of the third-round match.
Keys, coached by three-time Grand Slam singles champion Lindsay
Davenport, screamed with delight on sealing victory in Melbourne.
The world number 35 plays Madison Brengle in the fourth round as
four United States players made the last 16.
"My hands are still shaking, right now I can't even process
this, I'm just so excited," said Keys.
Kvitova, winner of Wimbledon in 2011 and 2014, has never made it
past the last four of the Australian Open.
Last year she was beaten in her first match by Thailand's
Luksika Kumkhum, playing in just her second Grand Slam tournament.
