Qualification finals locked in
On Saturday the first round of the BOSS OPEN qualification was played. All four German participants were eliminated.
Max Hans Rehberg, Louis Wessels, Mats Rosenkranz and Henri Squire tried their hand at Stuttgart's Weissenhof, but in the end they were more or less without a chance against their opponents who were ranked much higher. Rosenkranz and Squire could at least hope for a surprise by winning their first set.
The four matches of the second and last qualifying round are scheduled for Sunday, after which all participants for the main draw starting on Monday will be determined. Fans can look forward to the following duels starting at 11 am: Christopher Eubanks (USA/ATP No. 74) will face Radu Albot (MDA/113) in the "Colosseum", followed by Benjamin Hassan (LIB/284) challenging Yosuke Watanuki (JPN/126).
On Match Court 2, the match between Marton Fucsovics (HUN/83) and Altug Celikbilek (TUR/212) will also start at 11 am, followed by the duel between Borna Gojo (CRO/104) and Antoine Bellier (SUI/209).
