However, Teichmann had to fight hard for her 1:6, 7:6 (7:2), 6:1 victory against Miriam Bulgaru (WTA 219), who was awarded a wild card. After clearly losing the opening set, the 27-year-old left-hander needed a break twice in the second round at 4:5 and 5:6 to save herself in the tiebreak. She remained just as confident in this as in the subsequent deciding set, in which she converted her second match point after 2:19 hours.
For Teichmann, it was her second victory in the main draw of a WTA tournament since the end of January after surviving the starting round at the French Open. In the round of 16, the Swiss will face the winner of the duel between Poland's Maja Chwalinska (WTA 145) and Belarus' Irina Shymanovich (WTA 165).
