- Leylah Fernandez, a 22-year-old Canadian from Laval, Que., was eliminated from the Monterrey Open on Wednesday after losing to Slovakia's Rebecca Sramkova in a round-of-16 match.
- Following her Washington Open victory last month, Fernandez entered the Monterrey Open as the seventh seed, but had recently experienced consecutive first-round losses at both the National Bank Open and the Cincinnati Open.
- Fernandez secured the opening set and won 64.3 percent of her first-serve points, but Sramkova mounted a comeback by converting all five break opportunities during the final two sets of the closely contested, two-hour and nine-minute match.
