Oleksandra Oliynykova vs Ipek Oz — R32 — Iași Open

Eighty-six points to 85 — over nearly two and a half hours, that was the entire gap between the No. 3 seed and a lucky loser ranked WTA No. 370. Oleksandra Oliynykova converted 3 of 5 break points and saved 9 of 12, while Ipek Oz cashed just 3 of her 12 chances — her game-9 break for 5-4 in the opener was wiped out in game 10, and the set slid to a breaker. Oliynykova broke for 6-5 in game 11 of the second, still needed a tiebreak, and had a match point saved before closing out her opening match at the Iași Open.
