Very sad scene on Center Court where Brazilian Beatriz Haddad Maia, hit in the back, was forced to retire when she was down 4-1 in the first set against defending champion Elena Rybakina.
Touched in the back at the end of the fourth game, the seeded 13 was tested on the next game, but realizing the impossibility of playing more, she had to throw in the towel. Tears then flowed.
