It is unclear why the Swedes did not come into play, but may have to do with Peterson's back problems or colds. She got a latch in the back a week before the grand slam tournament, but then went on a virus just days before her first match in singles.
Peterson played, but lost the match. Larsson also lost in the first round of the singles game.
Another Swedish, double specialist Cornelia Lister, entered the double tournament instead - together with Canadian Sharon Fichman. However, they lost against Australian Jaimee Fourlis and Arina Rodionova by 6-7, 2-6.
