South run at an end
Melanie South's progress at the East West Bank Classic was halted at the third-round stage by China's Meng Yuan.
The British No 4 broke in each set, but Yuan ultimately proved far too strong and cruised to a 6-2 6-3 win and a place in the quarter-finals.
Russian third seed Anna Chakvetadze suffered an upset defeat, going down 6-4 5-7 6-2 to Sybille Bammer, the 14th seed from Austria.
