US Open: Knapp/Begu miss the sensation

After her first-round defeat in singles against Bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova, Karin Knapp was also eliminated in doubles from the US Open on Thursday. The 27-year-old from Ahrntal almost caused a huge sensation with the Romanian Irina-Camelia Begu, because she brought the number 2 seeds Su-Wei Hsieh/Shuai Peng (TPE/CHN), who won the French Open in Paris this year and in the Last year we won Wimbledon, on the verge of defeat. In the end, the two Asians prevailed 4:6, 7:5, 6:3.
