French Open 2014 Scores: Notable Results and Impressive Performances from Day 6
Published: May 30, 2014
Both Serena Williams and Li Na fell in the first two rounds in the women's bracket while Australian Open champion Stan Wawrinka was knocked out immediately on the men's side. In many of these cases, you just have to give credit where it is due for the underdogs who performed well.
Of course, there are also top seeds who continue to take care of business with impressive efforts at Roland Garros. Here is a look at the some of the best performances from Day 6:
Complete results are available at RolandGarros.com.
Ajla Tomljanovic def. No. 3 Agnieszka Radwanska, 6-4, 6-4
Although Agnieszka Radwanska was the highest seed remaining in the women's draw coming into the day, she now becomes the latest upset victim in Paris.
Tomljanovic was aggressive on her serve, which topped out at 185 kph. Although she got only 57 percent of her first serves in play and ended with six double faults, she was also able to win 79 percent of her first serves.
This created a unique scenario in the tournament, via ESPN Tennis:
Tomljanovic was actually motivated by the early results in the tournament. According to WTATennis.com, the Croatian star explained, "After seeing, you know, the two first seeds go out, you kind of feel like I can do this, too.

It obviously helped because she was confident throughout the match and she was able to do enough to move onto the next round. She will now face No. 14 seed Carla Suarez Navarro in the fourth round with a trip to the quarterfinals on the line.
No. 7 Maria Sharapova def. Paula Ormaechea, 6-0, 6-0
