Lugano 2019: Monday's Order of Play and Match Points

MATCH POINTS
Svetlana Kuznetsova returns to action against compatriot and No.6 seed Ekaterina Alexandrova
Local favorite Timea Bacsinszky opens against Tamara Korpatsch
No.4 seed Alison Van Uytvanck trails Tereza Smitkova 1-2, although their match today will be their first encounter in over four years - and the first time they will have met off indoor hard courts. Budapest champion Van Uytvanck took their first match 6-2, 6-2 at the 2013 Loughborough ITF W25 event, but Smitkova went on to capture their Luxembourg qualifying tilt 6-4, 6-3 in the same year, as well as winning their second-round encounter 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 at the 2014 Limoges 125K.
Sorana Cirstea
Australian Open junior champion Clara Tauson
28-year-old Italian Martina Di Giuseppe and 18-year-old Swiss wildcard Fiona Ganz will also seek to make their WTA main draw debuts by qualifying today, while 31-year-old Italian Giulia Gatto-Monticone - who hit a new career-high ranking of World No.173 this week - will bid to make her first WTA main draw since Kuala Lumpur in 2014.
