French Open champion Justine Henin-Hardenne made a shock first round exit from Wimbledon on Tuesday when she lost 7-6, 2-6, 7-5 to Eleni Daniilidou of Greece.

The 2001 Wimbledon runner-up, who opted not to play a grasscourt warm-up event after her victory at Roland Garros earlier this month, produced an error-riddled display on Court One and Daniilidou took full advantage.

Both players had trouble serving and the Greek world number 76 took the first set tiebreak on her fifth set point, helped by a dubious line call.

Seventh seed Henin-Hardenne raced through the second set but Daniilidou shrugged off a leg injury in the third to score a major upset, with the Belgian conceding defeat after another of the double-faults that had plagued her throughout.
