Tomljanovic eliminates Konta in Brisbane

Australian Ajla Tomljanovic has registered one of the best wins of her career, beating British star Johanna Konta in straight sets at the Brisbane International.

After making a frustrated Konta pay for her errors in the first set, world No.46 Tomljanovic outlasted her opponent in a topsy-turvy second to win 6-2 7-6 (7-2) on Wednesday to reach the quarter-finals.

Tomljanovic will face world No.8 Czech Karolina Pliskova for a place in the final four.
