Second seed Venus Williams crashed to Russia's Nadia Petrova in the fourth round of the French Open yesterday. Williams, 2002 runner-up here lost 3-6, 4-6.
"It's the most dramatic Roland Garros of my career," said 27-year-old Petrova, who completed an epic win over France's Aravane Rezai on Saturday in which she secured victory by winning the deciding set 10-8. "I came through a really stressful situation yesterday and I'm so happy with the way things went today," added Petrova.
