A German tennis trio led by Andrea Petkovic missed the second round of the Grand Slam tournament in Wimbledon. In addition to the 34-year-old, Nastasja Schunk and Daniel Altmaier also dropped out right at the start.
Petkovic lost 4: 6, 3: 6 against the Swiss Viktorija Golubic and failed as in 2019 right at the start. The player from Darmstadt gave up the serve four times on the lawn she didn’t love much and made too many minor mistakes throughout the game.
On her Wimbledon debut, the 18-year-old Schunk lost 4:6, 2:6 to Romanian Mihaela Buzarnescu in 76 minutes. The woman from Leimen had fought her way into the main draw for the first time with three two-set victories in the qualification. At the French Open, Schunk was also eliminated in the first round.
Altmaier also out – four Germans further
Altmaier’s game against Swede Mikael Ymer was stopped on Monday evening when the score was 0: 2 from the point of view of the 23-year-old Kempener because of darkness. Altmaier couldn’t improve on the sequel either and lost 3:6, 5:7, 5:7.
On the first day of the Wimbledon tournament, Angelique Kerber, Jule Niemeier, Oscar Otte and Maximilian Marterer progressed.
