Until her quarter-final defeat to Hailey Baptiste at the Madrid Open last week, where Baptiste spectacularly saved six match points, Sabalenka had started the year by winning 26 of her first 27 matches.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"a571a8b6-3767-45b2-891f-e33c8e2c9c10\" data-spacefinder-role=\"richLink\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.RichLinkBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-47fhrn\"><gu-island name=\"RichLinkComponent\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"idle\" props=\"{&quot;richLinkIndex&quot;:2,&quot;element&quot;:{&quot;_type&quot;:&quot;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.RichLinkBlockElement&quot;,&quot;prefix&quot;:&quot;Related: &quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Tennis slams\u2019 refusal to discuss money is slap in face for players who are right to threaten boycott | Tumaini Carayol&quot;,&quot;elementId&quot;:&quot;a571a8b6-3767-45b2-891f-e33c8e2c9c10&quot;,&quot;role&quot;:&quot;richLink&quot;,&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/2026\/may\/09\/tennis-slams-refusal-discuss-money-slap-in-face-for-players-threaten-boycott&quot;},&quot;ajaxUrl&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/api.nextgen.guardianapps.co.uk&quot;,&quot;format&quot;:{&quot;design&quot;:0,&quot;display&quot;:0,&quot;theme&quot;:2}}\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">This is also the first time Sabalenka has lost before the quarter-final stage at any tournament since February 2025 and she will head to the French Open having failed to reach the semi-final in any clay-court tournament this year. Sabalenka also has fresh injury concerns to address after struggling with a lower back injury in the final stages of the match.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Cirstea, meanwhile, continues to save the best tennis of her entire career for her farewell tour. Cirstea, 36, will retire from professional tennis at the end of this season but she has performed at a consistently high level from the start of the season. Despite being a constant presence near the top of the sport for 17 years, Cirstea has never broken the top 20, peaking at No 21 in 2013. She sits at No 14 in the live WTA Race and this is the first time that Cirstea has ever beaten a No 1 player. She had lost all 12 sets in prior meetings with the No 1 player.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">As was the case with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/2026\/may\/08\/novak-djokovic-italian-open-tennis-french-open\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">Novak Djokovic a day earlier<\/a> during his surprise three-set defeat to the men\u2019s No 79, Dino Prizmic, this result seemed unlikely early on as Sabalenka rolled through the first set. However, Cirstea recovered impressively, playing with fearless aggression in the final two sets as she controlled the majority of points and forced an erratic Sabalenka behind the baseline.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"79f434bc-a6f6-4093-aff7-3371a16ea2bf\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.ImageBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\"><figcaption data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" class=\"dcr-fd61eq\"><span class=\"dcr-1inf02i\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"13\" viewbox=\"0 0 18 13\"><path d=\"M18 3.5v8l-1.5 1.5h-15l-1.5-1.5v-8l1.5-1.5h3.5l2-2h4l2 2h3.5l1.5 1.5zm-9 7.5c1.9 0 3.5-1.6 3.5-3.5s-1.6-3.5-3.5-3.5-3.5 1.6-3.5 3.5 1.6 3.5 3.5 3.5z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1qvd3m6\">Romania\u2019s Sorana Cirstea broke Aryna Sabalenka\u2019s serve three times in the second set.<\/span> Photograph: Claudia Greco\/Reuters<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Down a break at 3-4 in the final set, Sabalenka received a medical timeout on her lower back. Even as she visibly struggled with her back, Sabalenka fought hard and she provided herself with an opportunity to turn the match around, pulling Cirstea back to 5-5 from 3-5 down. Cirstea composed herself and then forced herself back on to the front foot, winning the final two games to close out an enormous victory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Although tennis players are mandated to participate in a press conference if they are requested by the media, Sabalenka\u2019s back injury meant she simply provided some quick quotes to a WTA representative. \u201cI feel like I didn\u2019t play well from the beginning till the end,\u201d she said. \u201cI started really well, but then I kind of dropped the level. Felt like my body was limiting me from performing on the highest level. She stepped in and played incredible tennis. Didn\u2019t really give me many opportunities. Yeah, that was a tough one. But I guess we never lose; we only learn, so it\u2019s OK.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Sabalenka said she would use the coming days to address the physical discomfort she struggled with. \u201cI\u2019d say that probably it\u2019s like my lower back, connected to the hip, which was kind of like limiting me from full rotation. I guess we are just going to have some days off. We\u2019re going to spend it on recovery. That\u2019s the plan I believe for now,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Jannik Sinner began his pursuit of a record-extending sixth consecutive Masters 1000 title by easing through his second-round match with a comfortable 6-3, 6-4 win over Sebastian Ofner of Austria. Sinner, who is also attempting to follow Djokovic by becoming the second man in history to win every Masters 1000 title, had few problems adjusting to slow, heavy conditions at night in front of a packed home crowd.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"c17630cd-dee9-49ae-a8dc-60872beac46d\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.ImageBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\"><figcaption data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" class=\"dcr-fd61eq\"><span class=\"dcr-1inf02i\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"13\" viewbox=\"0 0 18 13\"><path d=\"M18 3.5v8l-1.5 1.5h-15l-1.5-1.5v-8l1.5-1.5h3.5l2-2h4l2 2h3.5l1.5 1.5zm-9 7.5c1.9 0 3.5-1.6 3.5-3.5s-1.6-3.5-3.5-3.5-3.5 1.6-3.5 3.5 1.6 3.5 3.5 3.5z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1qvd3m6\">His supporters will have enjoyed watching Jannik Sinner beat Sebastian Ofner.<\/span> Photograph: Alfredo Falcone\/LaPresse\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The men\u2019s No 1 broke Ofner\u2019s serve early in both sets and navigated his service games with ease, facing no break points in the match.

Those tense early struggles set the tone for a difficult day against one of the most explosive players on the tour. Tirante\u2019s massive first serve consistently scaled 140mph, peaking at 148mph, which the world No 69 backed up by dominating the baseline with his heavy forehand.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"b26b2c2c-9067-48b2-a5db-e0dcde7eaf2c\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.ImageBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\"><figcaption data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" class=\"dcr-fd61eq\"><span class=\"dcr-1inf02i\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"13\" viewbox=\"0 0 18 13\"><path d=\"M18 3.5v8l-1.5 1.5h-15l-1.5-1.5v-8l1.5-1.5h3.5l2-2h4l2 2h3.5l1.5 1.5zm-9 7.5c1.9 0 3.5-1.6 3.5-3.5s-1.6-3.5-3.5-3.5-3.5 1.6-3.5 3.5 1.6 3.5 3.5 3.5z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1qvd3m6\">Cameron Norrie had beaten Thiago Agust\u00edn Tirante at the Madrid Open two weeks ago.<\/span> Photograph: Antonietta Baldassarre\/Insidefoto\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Norrie, who had beaten Tirante two weeks ago at the Madrid Open, will next compete at the Geneva Open, which takes place a week before the French Open main draw begins. \u201cI\u2019m feeling so good physically, mentally,\u201d he said. \u201cThis loss is just going to make me hungry, I think, but I was shocked with my level because I\u2019ve been playing so well in practice, I can\u2019t prepare better.
