Tara Moore has become the final British woman to be knocked out of the 2016 Wimbledon Championships after falling to a 6-1 2-6 6-3 defeat at the hands of Svetlana Kuznetsova in the second round.

The 23-year-old, ranked 227th in the world, had never faced a top-20 player before but proved a match for the 13th seed after working her way into the contest.

Moore fell 4-0 behind as the 31-year-old Russian swept through the first set either side of a rain delay, but roared on by the crowd, she began to get a foothold in the rallies, breaking serve three times and levelling at one set all.

The Briton then recovered an early break in the decider to trail 4-3 but Kuznetsova was ultimately able to close out the win and progress to the next round.
