Daria Saville's luck has finally run out at the Madrid Open as Australia's sole woman representative in the big clay-court event got knocked out -- for a second time in four days.
The Australian No.1 had been given a reprieve after getting kayoed in qualifying by Romania's Jaqueline Cristian on Tuesday when she earned a lucky loser's ticket into the main draw following the withdrawal of Karolina Pliskova through injury.
The second chance was gleefully taken advantage of by 30-year-old Saville, as she went on to win her first-round match against American Hailey Baptiste on Wednesday.
