NEW YORK (Reuters) - Second seed Ash Barty's U.S. Open bid came crashing down when she lost 6-2 6-4 to China's Wang Qiang in the fourth round on Sunday.

Wang had never taken a set off the former world number one in two previous matches and looked to be in trouble after Australian Barty started with a dominant performance on serve.
