Sorensen out in Chennai
Ireland's Louk Sorensen crashed out in the first round of the Chennai Open, losing 6-2 6-1 to France's Stephane Robert in India.
Sorensen, ranked 293 in the world, had come through as a qualifier, entering the main draw of an ATP event for the first time in three attempts.
But the Frenchman proved too powerful as he blazed his way through the first set.
Robert broke in the third game of the second set, winning on his second break point and broke again in the fifth and seventh games to seal victory in an hour and 11 minutes.
