Kyle Edmund has seen his seven-match winning streak come to an end after he suffered defeat to Chung Hyeon in the quarter-finals of the Burnie Challenger.

The British number three has enjoyed a superb start to the year which has seen him move into the world's top 150 after winning a challenger in Hong Kong last week, but he was unable to sustain that run of form against the eighth seed in Australia.

The 20-year-old could only convert one of nine break points during the opening set and his 18-year-old opponent was able to capitalise to move into the lead.

Edmund was unable to pose any threat to the South Korean's serve during a one-sided second set, and Chung eventually ran out a 6-3 6-2 winner.
