Dutch tennis player Botic van de Zandschulp (world No. 49) defeated Swiss qualifier Marc-Andrea Hüsler (ATP-340) 7-6(7), 6-3 in the first round of the BMW Open in Munich, despite a nervy tiebreak in which he double-faulted twice before closing out the set with three forehand winners. The 30-year-old from Wageningen recovered from an early break in both sets to seal a comfortable victory in the second, finishing the match with five double faults overall. Munich carries bittersweet memories for Van de Zandschulp, who has reached the tournament's final twice in his career but lost both times to Denmark's Holger Rune.
