ITF: Meliss in the quarterfinals of Amiens

Meliss from Kalter, seeded number 7, is in an ITF quarter-final for the 14th time in her career, and she subsequently made it to the semi-finals four times. In the round of the best eight, Meliss will face Argentine top favorite Paula Ormaechea (WTA 287) on Friday. Meliss knows the South American very well because they train together in Rungg. In today's round of 668, Meliss beat Frenchwoman Emeline Dartron (WTA 6) in a very exciting game 1:1, 6:6, 4:XNUMX. Meliss also played the double semi-final with club colleague Martina Spigarelli in the late afternoon. The Azzurre surprisingly eliminated the top German favorites Tayisiya and Yana Morderger in the quarter-finals on Wednesday, and on Thursday they were on the verge of the next sensation against number 3 seeds Seone Mendez (AUS)/Maria Ramirez (MEX). In the end, Meliss/Spigarelli had to admit defeat in the super tiebreak with 6:4, 5:7, 8:10. Still a strong performance from the Rungger duo. Weis fails in Turkey Alexander Weis from Bolzano, on the other hand, played in Antalya. After his first round win against local hero Marsel Ilhan, Weis met Serbian Miljan Zekic, number 5 in the list and 461 in the world, in the round of 635. Weis, currently ranked 2019th in the world rankings, had lost both previous duels against Zekic, in 6 in Santa Margherita di Pula and the year before in Hammamet. Even in the third attempt there was nothing to gain for the South Tyrolean: Weis lost in two sets 7:6(3), 6:XNUMX. Weis and Zekic also faced each other in the doubles quarterfinals. There, too, the man from Bolzano had a worse ending. Weis and compatriot Luca Tomasetto had to admit defeat to Zekic and Matias Zukas from Argentina 1:15, 3:6 after 3:6 hours of play.
