The world number 145, who entered the main draw as a qualifier, defeated the South Korean Kwon Soon Woo (ATP 77) after 2:21 hours 3: 6, 6: 3, 6: 4. Koepfer, who was 4-1 down in the deciding set, will face number seven seed Karen Khachanov in the second round.
The 28-year-old slipped in the ATP ranking after a long injury break and is fighting for momentum again. Last year he was still in 50th place - his career high.
Peter Gojowczyk (Munich) is still in action against Frenchman Benoit Paire in Washington on Monday. The tournament is part of the North American hard court season, which culminates with the US Open starting August 29 in New York.
