Tatjana Maria’s ingenuity ran dry as she was ousted 3-6, 6-2, 7-6(6) by Argentina’s Nadia Podoroska in WTA Chennai Open round-of-16 match at the SDAT Tennis Stadium here on Thursday.
In a compelling, but not so thrilling, contest that ran for 2 hours and 46 minutes, Podoroska found herself down 1-5 in the deciding set tie-break before clawing her way back to win seven of the next eight points and defeat the tournament’s fourth seeded German.
