<p>LONDON (AP) — Zheng Qinwen became the second top-five seed to lose in the first round at Wimbledon on Tuesday when the Olympic gold medalist fell to Katerina Siniakova 7-5, 4-6, 6-1.</p>
<p>The 22-year-old Chinese player was the No. 5 seed at the All England Club and her loss came hours after third-seeded Jessica Pegula was upset by Elisabetta Cocciaretto.</p>
<p>It was Zheng's third straight first-round exit at Wimbledon.</p>
<p>Siniakova is a three-time doubles champion at the All England Club, including winning last year alongside Taylor Townsend.</p>
<p>Siniakova has won 10 major doubles titles — seven with Barbora Krejcikova, two with Townsend, and one with Coco Gauff at last year's French Open.</p>
<p>Krejcikova got her Wimbledon singles title defense off to a winning start Tuesday.</p>
<p>Siniakova will face four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka in the second round.</p>
