German women's tennis is really experiencing a Renaissance nowadays. It's not like they need another player to be in the top 100. Anyhow, Dinah Pfizenmaier, currently ranked #198, reaches the second round of Roland Garros this year. She won over local girl Caroline Garcia (#135), 36 64 63. Her second round opponent though is world #1 Victoria Azarenka, where she lost 61 61. If she continues the way she plays, she should be in the top 100 in no time!
