British wildcard Jodie Burrage has crashed out of Wimbledon following her first-round defeat to Lesia Tsurenko.
Tsurenko eased to victory in just over an hour with a 6-2 6-3 straight sets loss.
Burrage came to the aid of a ball boy who was taken ill during her first-round match with Lesia Tsurenko.
The youngster looked unsteady on his feet in the early part of the second set and the 23-year-old Briton attended to him, offering an energy gel from her bag and a drink.
The crowd also helped out, passing some Percy Pig sweets to her during a five-minute delay.
The ball boy was later treated by paramedics and left in a wheelchair.
