Ana Ivanovic's frustrating run continued on Monday as she became the first major casualty of the US Open.

Since her semi-final appearance at the French Open, the world number seven has only won five matches on the WTA Tour, and Monday's defeat at the hands of Dominika Cibulkova is another major disappointment.

Her first-round exit is the second of 2015 after suffering the same fate at the Australian Open, while she was beaten in round two at Wimbledon.

The seventh seed made a confident start at Flushing Meadows but she failed to capitalise on a break in the fifth game as she promptly lost four successive games to give Cibulkova the set.

Ivanovic bounced back in the second, though, and came from 3-1 down to win five in a row to level the match at 6-3.

She failed to use that momentum though as she was broken twice at the start of the decider, Cibulkova – who had fallen at the first round at the last two US Open tournaments – showing her fight to cruise through.

There was a brief glimmer for the Serb in the seventh game but Cibulkova – who reached the Australian Open final this year – held her nerve and booked a second round place.
