30 January 2007
The 26-year-old former champion, who has been struggling to recover from the hip injury which forced her to miss the French Open, became the biggest casualty of the women's singles on the infamous court two.
The 1997 champion, who had to save two match points to get past British teenager Naomi Cavaday in the first round, lost 6-4 6-2 to the world number 77, her first defeat by the American.
It was all over in just 66 minutes as Hingis three times dropped her serve and failed to win a single break point.
Granville, 26, who is making a sixth successive appearance at Wimbledon, now takes on 18-year-old Dutch player Michaella Krajicek for a first-ever place in the fourth round.
