Niemeier, who has been in the care of Christopher Kas for a few weeks, beat Alexandra Cadantu-Ignatik 6-1 and 6-1 after 80 minutes of play. The next opponent for the second-placed German will be Jessika Ponchet from France.

Laura Siegemund also had no problems against Anastasia Zakharova. Siegemund won 6:3 and 6:0, but now has to play against the fourth seeded Chinese Xiyu Wang.

With Katharina Gerlach, Nastasja Schunk and Tamara Korpatsch, three other German representatives are represented in the Quali-Draw. However, this trio will not start the competitions until tomorrow, Tuesday.
