MOSCOW, Oct. 23 (UPI) -- Defending champion Jelena Jankovic dropped a quarterfinal match Friday in straight sets at the $1 million Kremlin Cup tournament in Moscow.
Jankovic's second-round victory Thursday locked up the final quarterfinals slot at the WTA's season-ending Sony Ericsson Championships in Qatar but she went out quickly Friday, falling 6-4, 6-3 to unseeded Alisa Kleybanova.
