Couple two Heather Watson lost the Tianjin Open – her first WTA last for over three years – in direct sets to Rebecca Peterson.
World variety 59 Peterson, 24, won 6-4 to claim her second WTA title.
Watson, ranked 125th, broke in both sets but was immediately pegged back times, with Peterson winning 38 seconds.
The match was played inside in the end.
Watsons type this week means if the new rankings are released the 27-year-old is guaranteed to scale back within the worlds best 100.
It was the very first time that the Briton had lost WTA last, winning her previous three at Osaka at 2012, Hobart in 2015 and Monterrey at 2016.
Following the game, Watson said:I am rather happy on court today and I am really enjoying my match . Im looking forward to seeing whats to come
