WIMBLEDON, England — Canadas Aleksandra Wozniak is out of Wimbledon after a 6-4, 6-2 second-round loss to Chinas Zheng Jie. Darren McFadden Elite Jersey. Her exit leaves Milos Raonic of Thornhill, Ont., as the lone Canadian left in the singles draw. He faces American Sam Querrey in the second round later today. Wozniak has now gone out in the second round in three of her last five appearances at the All England Club. The Blainville, Que., native defeated the 25th-seeded Zheng a few weeks ago at the French Open. The 56th-ranked Wozniak produced 25 unforced errors and lost serve five times. “It was tough,” she said. “She really wanted to get back at me, today she was playing out of her mind.” After her opening win over Russian Vera Dushevina, Wozniak couldnt seem to find her game as Zheng opened the match with a break of serve and never let up. Zheng claimed the opening set and started the second with a break. Wozniak saved match points in the penultimate game but exited a few moments later on a backhand that went long. “We had tough rallies but her balls were coming over like a machine gun,” said Wozniak. “Even on the run her shots were heavy and she didnt miss at all. I tried to move here around the court but she kept it stable.” Wozniak, who had a practice session with John McEnroe on Wednesday, will now return to Canada to prepare for the Olympic tournament, which will also be played at the All England Club.

Philadelphia opened two-goal leads in three of its previous four games but only had one win to show for it. But after Sean Couturier scored the tiebreaking goal 3:23 into the third period Tuesday night, the Flyers didnt allow the Hurricanes many chances to rally. “Weve had a few games where weve lost the game in the third,” said Harry Zolnierczyk, who assisted on Couturiers game-winner. “This was a game where we had the chance to win it in the third. It was good that we made sure we did that.” Brayden Schenn had the Flyers other goal and Sergei Bobrovsky made 35 saves. Philadelphia is 18-3-3 against the Hurricanes since the start of the 2006-07 season, including 10-1-1 in Carolina. Jerome Samson scored his first NHL goal for the Hurricanes, who were 4-0-1 in their previous five home games. Carolina has dropped four of five overall. “No one wants to lose around here,” Carolina coach Kirk Muller said. “No one wants to make it a habit at all. We want to compete and play hard and win hockey games. But thats a good hockey team over there. I thought everyone put in a really good effort tonight. We battled, we played, for the most part, head-to-head with them.” Cam Ward made 35 saves for the Hurricanes, and the game was close throughout despite the disparity in records. The Flyers entered the night four points behind the New York Rangers at the top of the Eastern Conference, while the Hurricanes were ahead of only the New York Islanders. Philadelphia wanted to make amends for its performance Sunday against Ottawa. The Flyers blew a two-goall lead in that game and lost 6-4, and Daniel Briere described his teams effort as “soft” afterward. Darrius Heyward-Bey Youth Jersey “Overall, it was a much better effort,” Philadelphia coach Peter Laviolette said. With the score tied at 1 early in the third period, Couturier received the puck from Zolnierczyk near the Carolina blue line along the right boards. As Zolnierczyk skated to the net and drew both Hurricanes defencemen, Couturier accelerated forward and beat Ward on the blocker side with a shot that stayed just inside the left post. “I had some time to take a look, and I saw a little hole and tried to put it there,” Couturier said. After a scoreless first period, Philadelphia opened the scoring early in the second. Ward stopped Wayne Simmonds attempt on the rush, but Schenn was in front and cleaned up the rebound. Carolina tied the score on the power play. Justin Faulk slapped a shot from the high slot, and the rebound came to Samson, recalled from the Hurricanes minor league affiliate in Charlotte earlier Tuesday. Samson beat the outstretched Bobrovsky and had a wide grin on his face when he got back to the bench. The victory was Laviolettes 100th since becoming Flyers coach. “I didnt know that until before the game — somebody said something to me,” Laviolette said. “I guess I didnt think about it much. Im happy to be here and be a Flyer. I hope theres 500 more.” NOTES: Philadelphias top line of Claude Giroux, Scott Hartnell and Jaromir Jagr was held without a point for the third straight game. … Carolinas Chad LaRose missed the game with an upper-body injury. … Hurricanes D Jaroslav Spacek took a wrist shot off the face in the second period.
