Two Austrian tennis players, Sinja Kraus and Lilli Tagger, secured opening-round victories at WTA 250 tournaments. Kraus, who recently won in Kitzbühel, defeated Latvia’s Darja Semenistaja in three sets and will face either Spain’s Sara Sorribes Tormo or Armenia’s Alina Tscharajewa in the round of 16. She struggled initially but improved significantly in the second and third sets. Tagger easily beat China’s Xinyu Gao in two sets and will next play Japan’s Mai Hontama. Meanwhile, Julia Grabher, seeded first in Amstetten, defeated wildcard player Ekaterina Perelygina in straight sets and advanced to the round of 16. Another Austrian, Arabella Koller, also progressed after defeating Serbia’s Teodora Kostović.
