Former Texas Longhorns women’s tennis star Lulu Sun had a historic run at this year’s Wimbledon in London, England. The former Longhorn’s tournament lasted all the way until the quarterfinals round, when Sun, who hails from New Zealand, dropped a split-set match to Croatian Donna Vekic.

“It was a tough match,” said Sun, according to the New Zealand Herald. “Donna played really well, she picked it up in the second set.
