Niemeier loses round of 16 in Bogotá

Jule Niemeier wants to get back to her old form. In Colombia, however, it is not enough for the Dortmund tennis player to win

Tennis player Jule Niemeier has clearly missed out on a place in the quarter-finals of the WTA tournament in Bogotá. The 24-year-old from Dortmund lost to fourth seed Cristina Bucsa from Spain 4:6, 1:6 in 88 minutes. Niemeier made a total of 13 double faults in the match.

After a sporting crisis, the former Wimbledon quarter-finalist is trying to regain her old form. Niemeier last reached the top eight at a WTA tournament in July 2023. She failed to qualify for the Australian Open this year. Niemeier is ranked 113th in the world rankings.

The German pros Laura Siegemund and Tatjana Maria are still in the last 16 of the singles competition at the clay court tournament in Bogotá
