Oleksandra Oliynykova has brought her strong recent form to Hamburg, beating Nastasja Schunk in a challenging opening match and aiming for back-to-back WTA quarterfinals. Oliynykova, now ranked inside the top 50, faces Spain's Leyre Romero Gormaz, who also made a confident start but holds less experience at tour level. Given Oliynykova's body of work and momentum, she is tipped to have the edge and secure a place in the Hamburg quarterfinals.

Oliynykova Battles Into Hamburg Second Round

Oleksandra Oliynykova defeated Nastasja Schunk in a hard-fought three-set match, 6-2, 3-6, 7-5, to reach the second round in Hamburg. She saved 18 of the 24 break points she faced, a key factor in securing the victory. 

The Ukrainian came close to reaching her maiden WTA Tour final last week in Iași but lost to eventual champion Mayar Sherif in the semifinals. She has carried that momentum into Hamburg. 

Oliynykova had not won a tour-level main-draw match before 2026, but she has enjoyed a breakthrough season, reaching the semifinals in Cluj-Napoca and the third round at both the Italian Open in Rome and the French Open. Those results recently lifted her into the top 50.

Romero Gormaz Makes Impressive Start

Leyre Romero Gormaz began her Hamburg campaign with an impressive upset over Veronika Erjavec, winning 6-2, 6-2. She saved 10 of the 12 break points she faced and converted six of the seven break-point opportunities she created. 

This is only the third time she has cleared the opening round at tour level, having previously reached the second round at the French Open and the quarterfinals in Hamburg, both in 2025. 

The Spaniard has also produced solid results on the lower-level circuit this season, winning the WTA 125 title in Foggia and reaching the quarterfinals in Modena and Bastad.
