Hamburg’s Lys won the first set against the Spanish qualifier Cristina Bucsa, but was defeated in the end 6:2, 0:6 and 2:6. The 21-year-old, who was in the main draw of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time thanks to three convincing victories in qualifying, had to have his right wrist treated in the second set.
