Bencic reached the 2nd round in Wimbledon for the first time since 2019 and two defeats in a row. At the start, the number 14 seed from Eastern Switzerland won 7: 5, 6: 2 against wild card receiver Katie Swan (WTA 147) from England. Now she is also the clear favorite against the winner of the duel between the American Danielle Collins (WTA 52) and the Austrian Julia Grabher (WTA 58).

The victory was not a matter of course for Bencic, who had only played one game since April due to leg and shoulder complaints. The first set was a roller coaster ride in high winds and cool temperatures. Bencic trailed 2:3 with a break, but packed himself in time and made the decisive break to make it 7:5. She then clearly dominated the second round and scored her first match point after more than an hour and a half.

Teichmann remains without a win at Wimbledon

However, Wimbledon remains a difficult place for Jil Teichmann (WTA 121). At the Wimbledon Grand Slam tournament, the 25-year-old from Zealand lost her fourth participation in the first round for the fourth time. She lost to No. 23 Pole Magda Linette in 1:26 hours 3:6, 2:6.

Teichmann had some bad luck at the end of the first sentence. When the score was 3:4 and 30:30 when the Swiss served, the game had to be interrupted for about an hour and a half due to a rain shower. At the restart, the left-handers felt betrayed by the referee when, after a successful challenge from the Pole, he did not repeat the point as expected, but credited Linette to his name. Teichmann made a double foul on the ensuing break ball, then won only two games in a strong wind. (SDA)
