Stuttgart (AP) – Tennis player Tamara Korpatsch was eliminated in the round of 16 of the WTA tournament in Stuttgart against US Open winner Emma Raducanu.
The 26-year-old from Hamburg took a set from the clearly favored Brit, but had to admit defeat 0:6, 6:2, 1:6. The world number 118. Korpatsch had actually failed in qualifying for the high-class clay court tournament, but had moved into the main draw due to a cancellation.
After Korpatsch was eliminated, Laura Siegemund from Swabia is the only German quarter-finalist. Six German women were in the main draw of the 611,210 euro clay court tournament. Three-time Grand Slam tournament winner Angelique Kerber lost in the first round on Wednesday.
