Eastbourne: Johanna Konta beaten by Caroline Wozniacki

British number one Johanna Konta's final tournament before Wimbledon ended in a three-set defeat by top seed Caroline Wozniacki at Eastbourne.

Konta, 27, lost 4-6 6-1 6-4 in front of her home crowd at the Nature Valley International.

It was her first defeat in three matches against the Danish world number two.

Wozniacki will play Ash Barty in the quarter-finals after the Australian eighth seed beat Hsieh Su-wei 6-0 6-4.

Konta's next outing will be at Wimbledon, which starts at the All England Club on Monday.

Earlier in the day, third seed Petra Kvitova, who won last week's Nature Valley Classic in Birmingham, pulled out of Eastbourne with a hamstring injury.
