Must read

Power sisters Serena Williams and Venus Williams have both lost in the French Open second round.

Serena Williams lost in the second round on Wednesday, May 28, 2014 making it her earliest exit at a major tournament since falling in the first round at Roland Garros two years ago.

Serena, who is the defending French Open champion and a 17-time major winner, lost to Garbine Muguruza of Spain 6-2, 6-2.

Her older sister, Venus was also eliminated in the second round. Venus lost to Anna Schmiedlova of Slovakia 2-6, 6-3, 6-4.

If the sisters both won, they would have met in the third round.

Serena struggled from the start against the 20-year-old Muguruza and finished the match with only eight winners and 29 unforced errors.

Muguruza was playing at the French Open for only the second time in her career. She lost in the second round last year, but reached the fourth round at the Australian Open in January.
