Tamara Korpatsch dominated Mayar Sherif 6-1, 2-0 in a one-sided WTA Hamburg opener, winning by converting all three break points she faced while never facing a break point on her own serve. Sherif struggled from the start, winning just one service game in the match and saving none of the three break points she faced.
Korpatsch broke in the second game of the first set to lead 2-0, then broke again in the fourth game for 4-0 before closing out the set 6-1. The second set began with another break of Sherif in the opening game, and the match ended after just two games, with Sherif unable to hold serve.
Korpatsch won 22 of 32 service points (69%) and 14 of 22 return points (64%), while Sherif managed only 7 service points won. The German converted all three of her break chances, a perfect 3/3, and did not face a single break point across the brief contest.
