Gisela Dulko Upset Samantha Stosur at Roland Garros
Samantha Stosur was knocked out in the French Open third round after a 6-4 1-6 6-3 defeat by Argentina’s Gisela Dulko on Friday.
Australia’s Stosur, the eighth seed, began terribly as Dulko dominated all areas of the match without having to put in an especially sparkling display.
Stosur looked to have regained control when she hit back in the second set but the unseeded Dulko broke to go up 4-2 in the third as her opponent racked up 35 unforced errors. The Australian joins Belgian second seed Kim Clijsters in exiting the tournament early.

Roland Garros 2011: Dulko and Pennetta Look For Major No.2
Roland Garros 2011: Dulko and Pennetta Look For Major No.2
After 10 titles together but no majors, Gisela Dulko and Flavia Pennetta finally filled that hole on their resume by capturing January’s Australian Open. And although Pennetta is still No.1 on the doubles rankings and Dulko No.2, it has been tough going for them since Melbourne, having lost before the semifinals in the four events they have played.
Dulko and Pennetta will be looking to get back on track at the French Open, where they were quarterfinalists in 2010 – their only previous appearance here. They certainly are comfortable on red clay, having won eight of their titles on it.
