Plíšková loses to unseeded Giorgi in Montreal final

The Czech Republic’s Karolína Plíšková lost in the final of the National Bank Open in Montreal on Sunday, going down 3-6 5-7 to the unseeded Camile Giorgi of Italy. It was the third final defeat of the season for Plíšková, who is 29.

Despite being beaten, the recent Wimbledon runner-up’s run to the final in Montreal means she moves from sixth to fourth in the world rankings.
