Julia Grabher’s first-round appearance at the tennis classic at Wimbledon was interrupted on Monday evening because it was getting dark and was postponed to Monday. At this point, the Vorarlberg native was one set behind the favored American Danielle Collins (4:6). It is only the fourth main round game for the 27-year-olds at major level.

Grabher, who recently made it into the top 60 in the world, put up an open fight with the former number 7, who has dropped back to 52nd place following injuries. The key moment was probably the fourth game. After Collins used her first breakball to make it 2-1, Grabher immediately missed three break opportunities and had to let her opponent go. At 3: 5 she fended off three set balls on her own serve, but Collins finally served successfully.
