Three-set defeat
Paszek fails in the quarter-finals in Sunderland
The quarter-finals were the last stop for Tamira Paszek at the ITF W35 tournament in Sunderland (England). In the duel for a place in the semi-finals, she was beaten 3:6, 6:3, 1:6 by Amelia Rajecki from Great Britain after 112 minutes.
The Dornbirn native, who is ranked number 369 in the world, got off to the better start in the match. The 34-year-old earned two break points in the fifth game and then took her second chance to make it 3:2, an advantage that only lasted a short time. Her 22-year-old opponent (WTA no. 541) managed to break back in the very next game. Paszek then seemed a little off her game, also struggling with the conditions in the hall, having to surrender her serve again at 3:5 and subsequently also the first set at 3:6.
The second set was again evenly poised at the start. Before Paszek was able to take her first break chance in the sixth game and make it 4:2. The preliminary decision, as both players were able to get through their service games quite easily and Tamira was able to serve out the set 6:3.
Still waiting for the anniversary title
Paszek had two break chances right at the start of the deciding set - but she missed them. Although she was able to level the score at 1:1, Rajecki didn't allow her a single game after that. As a result, she still has to wait for the tenth tour title of her career.
