Munich/London – Tatjana Maria and Jule Niemeier want to refine the greatest success of their tennis career so far.

The two tournament surprises will meet for the first time in the Wimbledon quarter-finals.

The game promises excitement!

Maria, 34 years old, ten Wimbledon participations, mother of two against Niemeier, 22 years old, who is at the grass classic for the first time.

Despite all the differences before the big German duel, the two surprise players of the tournament have one feeling in common.

"Being in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon is the same for her as it is for me," said Maria before the game on Tuesday (2 p.m.): "It's fantastic."

Wimbledon today in the live ticker: Small disappointment before the quarterfinals between Niemeier and Maria

For both of them, getting into the top eight in a Grand Slam tournament means the greatest success of their careers.

However, there was a small initial disappointment in the run-up: The game will take place first of the day on Court 1, the second largest square in the facility - and not on Center Court. That was the result of the fixtures on Monday.

Both players have already won once on this course during the tournament: 22-year-old Niemeier in the second round against world number three Anett Kontaveit from Estonia, twelve years older Maria in the round of 16 against Jelena Ostapenko from Latvia.

Only for the fifth time in the professional era are two German players in the Wimbledon quarterfinals.

The top seeded defending champion Novak Djokovic from Serbia and Jannik Sinner from Italy will start on the center court on Tuesday (2.30 p.m.).

Afterwards there will be the second women's quarter-final between Marie Bouzková and Ons Jabeur.
