Madison Keys beaten by Caroline Garcia

Second seed Madison Keys suffered elimination as she was defeated by ninth seed Caroline Garcia.

The American entered the match following a 6-4, 6-4 defeat to Beatriz Haddad Maia and needed a win in order to keep her semifinal hopes in the WTA Elite Trophy alive.

Garcia broke in the second game of the match and this was enough to see her take the first set 6-3. Keys had two break points in the eighth game of the second set but was unable to convert them, and a tiebreak ensued. Garcia won it to register a 6-3, 7-6(3) victory and eliminate the American from the tournament in Zhuhai.

The Frenchwoman will next face Beatriz Haddad Maia, with the winner progressing to the semifinals of the WTA Elite Trophy.
