Sam Stosur was beaten in the quarter-finals of the Citi Open in Washington DC, going down in straight sets to Jessica Pegula. The 2011 US Open champion lost 7-6 (7/4), 6-3 to wildcard Pegula on Friday after dropping the last six tie-breaker points and losing the only break point of the second set.I was up 4-1 in the tie-breaker and let that go. Probably that was it, said Stosur. A lot came down to a few points. As soon as one person got one clean shot the point was over. American Pegula was 10 years younger than Stosur and at 173rd in the world was 159 spots below the Aussie in the rankings.That was probably the biggest win of my career, Pegula said. Im really excited. Ive been playing really well. I put in a lot of hard work and it paid off. It really helped me this week practicing with her.
