In the continuation of a first-round match suspended on Monday due to darkness, Denmark’s Caroline Wozniacki upset No. 7 seed Elina Svitolina of Ukraine 6-3, 6-7 (4), 7-5 on Tuesday at the Bad Homburg Open in Germany.

In her first victory on a grass court since 2019 at Wimbledon, Wozniacki—a former World No. 1—pulled off her second win in seven meetings with Svitolina by rallying from a break down in the final set. Wozniacki won 74.3 percent of her first serves (52 of 70) and saved 7 of 12 break points.
