Women’s top seed Victoria Azarenka was ousted in the fourth round of the French Open by Slovakia’s Dominika Cibulkova.

Australian Open champion Azarenka of Belarus lost to the No. 15 seed, 6-2, 7-6 (7-4) on the Court Suzanne Lenglen at Roland Garros. It was the earliest defeat in a major for Azarenka since she lost in the third round of the U.S. Open last year. Cibulkova was a semi-finalist in Paris in 2009.
