The Hamburg Open’s top seed, Anett Kontaveit, defeated Sweden’s Rebecca Peterson on Wednesday by scores of 6-3 and 6-2 to go to the quarterfinals. In an hour and 20 minutes, Kontaveit defeated the world no. 93 by converting five of nine break points and saving four of five other opportunities. The triumph came after a 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) victory over Irina Bara of Romania in the first round on Tuesday. The two victories signal the world no. 2’s return to form after the Estonian struggled in the previous three competitions, losing in the first rounds of the French and Italian Opens and picking up only one victory at Wimbledon. Kontaveit, a four-time champion with seven final appearances in 2021, has already made two final appearances this year. She won in St. Petersburg to capture her sixth WTA championship and came in second at the Qatar Open.

Andrea Petkovic, ranked 67th in the world, defeated Miasaki Doi of Japan in straight sets to advance back to the quarterfinals in Hamburg. The 34-year-old German, who finished second last year, has had a quiet season thus far but has played well in the tournament’s first two rounds. She beat Doi 6-4, 6-3 on Tuesday after upsetting fellow countrywoman Tamara Korpatsch 6-3, 6-3 in the opening round. In a match that lasted one hour and 44 minutes, Petkovic gained a 5-2 lead with the help of a double break in the opening set, but she was unable to serve out the set on her first attempt, surrendering serve and giving Doi hope for a comeback. But the German swiftly recovered and finished the set at the second chance.
