Samantha Stosur’s season is over following another straight-sets loss at the Elite Trophy event in China.
Stosur’s hopes of scraping into the semi-finals of the round-robin tournament evaporated on Thursday night in a 6-4 6-3 loss to Frenchwoman Caroline Garcia.
That followed a 6-4 6-2 defeat to top seed Johanna Konta on Wednesday night and left Australia’s world No.20 without a win since late August at the US Open.
