Agnieszka did not make it through the first round of the Western & Southern Open.

No.9 seed Karolina Pliskova was better in straight sets 6-3, 6-3 after one hour and 30 minutes of play on Tuesday.

Aga, who has reached quarter-finals of Cincinnati on four occasions, converted only one of her eight break point chances, while the Czech capitalised on four of her 15 opportunities.

Stats: aces (2-4), double faults (0-5), total points won (63-73).

Agnieszka next heads to New York for the US Open, where she reached the last 16 five times.

Last year, she lost to Coco Vandeweghe (USA) in R3 (5-7, 6-4, 4-6).
