Tournament | Petkovic missed the quarterfinals at the Berlin tennis tournament

Andrea Petkovic missed the quarter-finals at the lawn tennis tournament in Berlin. The 34-year-old from Darmstadt lost 4: 6, 4: 6 to Alexandra Sasnowitsch from Belarus at the event, which was endowed with 790,000 euros.

In a match with a total of eight service losses, the 28-year-old Sasnowitsch had the better moments on her side in the important situations.

Petkovic gave up the first game with three double mistakes, but was able to immediately bring back the service game with the fifth break ball to allow another break in the third game. All in all, the Hessian only took the lead once in the second set to make it 3-2.

Previously, Coco Gauff was the last player to reach the round of 16. The French Open finalist prevailed in a US duel 6: 2, 7: 6 (7: 2) against Ann Li. In the round of 16, the seventh-seeded 18-year-old will face China’s Wang Xinyu.

Previously, Karolina Pliskova had already reached the last eight. The fourth-seeded Czech won 6-4, 2-6, 7-6 (9-7) against former US Open winner Bianca Andreescu from Canada. Darja Kassatkina also made it into the quarterfinals. In a Russian duel, the 25-year-old, who was number six, defeated Yekaterina Alexandrova, two years her senior, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1.
