German trio around Lisicki loses in Budapest

Budapest (SID) A German tennis trio led by former Wimbledon finalist Sabine Lisicki was eliminated from the WTA tournament in Budapest on Wednesday with no chance. While Lisicki (Berlin) lost to Slovakian qualifier Viktoria Kuzmova 2:6, 4:6 in the round of XNUMX, Fed Cup players Tatjana Maria (Bad Saulgau) and Carina Witthöft (Hamburg) failed in the first round. Maria experienced a debacle against third-seeded local hero Timea Babos at 1:6, 0:6. The Hungarian won the doubles title at the Australian Open in January alongside Frenchwoman Kristina Mladenovic. Witthöft lost 2:6, 2:6 to the Slovakian Jana Cepelova, who, like her compatriot Kuzmova, only made it into the main draw through qualification. From a German perspective, this means that only Mona Barthel is left in the running for the title of the $250.000 indoor tournament. The world number 74. from Neumünster will face Babos in the round of XNUMX on Thursday.
