Former Wimbledon finalist Sabine Lisicki is still on course at the tennis tournament in Bad Homburg.
Former Wimbledon finalist Sabine Lisicki is still on course at the tennis tournament in Bad Homburg.
The 32-year-old defeated the Belgian Greetje Minnen 6: 3, 2: 6, 6: 2 and thus made it into the quarter-finals. Only on Tuesday did Lisicki win 6: 4, 7: 6 against compatriot Tamara Korpatsch and thus celebrated her first professional victory in a main field after the comeback.
After a severe cruciate ligament injury and a one-and-a-half year injury break, Lisicki returned to the WTA Tour in Berlin last week, but missed qualifying for the main draw. In Bad Homburg she got a wildcard. In the quarter-finals on Thursday, Lisicki will now face France’s Caroline Garcia. Tatjana Maria, who lost her round of 16 6:7 (4:7), 4:6 against Alizé Cornet from France, is no longer represented in the tournament.
