451 in the world ranking. Fanny Stollár after more than a quarter of an hour, she was already 0:5 against the Slovenian Tamara Zidansek, and although she led 3:1 in the second set, she could not avoid defeat against the 100th in the WTA ranking.
The is also a free card Rebeka Stolmár (606th) learned shortly before her match that her opponent, the first seeded Romanian Irina Begu – who is 33rd in the ranking – withdrew from the match citing fatigue, so she will face a lucky loser. This turned out to be the Russian Erika Andrejeva, who is ranked 134th in the world and who, after 1:1, did not lose a game in the first game. The second act was similar, Stolmár lost his organ three times, and it lasted 70 minutes.
This means that out of the eight Hungarians on the main table, only Anna Bondár and Natalya Sabanin advanced to the round of 16. Simona Walter from Switzerland (119th) and Arantxa Rus (101st) from the Netherlands are waiting for the former – the tournament’s second seed – in the continuation.
In the doubles field Molnár Kitti and Victoria Varga lost in an hour, while Great Adrienne and Tóth Amarissa defeated a Czech duo in a short cut.
