Serena Williams was stunned by a third round upset at the Australian Open Friday, ousted by 27th-seeded Wang Qiang of China, the three-set loss her earliest exit at the tournament in 14 years.

 

Other third round winners for the day included top-seed Ash Barty, Petrakvitova and on the men's side, second-seed Novak Djokovic. American Madison Keys fell to Maria Sakkari of Greece, and former Number 1 Caroline WozniackiI of Denmark was eliminated by Tunisia's Ons Jabeur, bringing her career to a close. The 29-year-old Wozniacki had announced she would retire after the Australian Open.
