Cann now represents England on the international stage
|
Jersey's Elizabeth Cann was knocked out of the quarter-finals at the French Open in Paris on Friday. Cann led in both games against Thailand's Porntip Buranaprasertsuk before going down 21-15 21-18. Nathan Robertson and Jenny Wallwork's hopes of a second Super Series final in successive weeks were also dashed. The Commonwealth silver and European bronze medallists lost to Sudket Prapakamol and Saralee Thoungthongkam 22-20 17-21 21-19. In the men's doubles Andrew Ellis and Chris Adcock came within two points of beating Danish fifth seeds Mads Conrad-Petersen and Jonas Rasmussen before losing 23-25 22-20 21-14. In winning bronze at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi, Cann became the first person from Jersey to pick up an individual medal since 1990.
