Fearnley's 13-match winning streak ends in Stockholm

Britain's Jacob Fearnley saw his 13-match winning streak come to an end with defeat by Dutch opponent Tallon Griekspoor at the Stockholm Open.

Qualifier Fearnley was beaten 7-6 (7-0) 6-3 by world number 37 Griekspoor in the second round of the ATP 250 event.

The 23-year-old Scot, who is ranked 99th, was looking to record the best win by ranking of his burgeoning professional career.

A remarkable rise has seen Fearnley quickly climb into the world's top 100 - having been ranked 646th at the start of this year - since graduating from university in the United States.
