Tennis News : Konta stuns third seed Svitolina

Third seed Elina Svitolina was dumped out of the second round of the National Bank Open in Montreal on Wednesday by Johanna Konta. The British number one rallied from a set down to defeat the world number five 3-6 6-3 6-2 Konta soon found herself trailing 3-0 to the Ukrainian in the opening set after losing serve. She regrouped in the second and forced a decider after clinching a crucial break in the eighth game to go on to serve out the set 6-3 and level things up. The momentum stayed with Konta, who broke twice in the decider to wrap up victory and set up a last-16 clash with either America's Coco Gauff, seeded 15th, or Russian qualifier Anastasia Potapova.
