In his encounter with Leandro Riedi, who surprisingly knocked out the Australian Thanasi Kokkinakis from the tournament in the first qualifying round, Otte showed strong nerves and won the match in three sets 6:3, 3:6, 6:3.
On Thursday he faces the last hurdle in front of the peloton with Marc Polmans.
Marterer’s appearance on Wednesday was much easier.

The 28-year-old defeated the Belgian Gauthier Onclin 6: 2, 6: 2 and in the final for his Wimbledon ticket he has to deal with number three seeded Fabian Marozsan, who defeated Elias Ymer 6: 3, 7 :6 (7:1) claimed.
Siegemund and Korpatsch are beaming
The women in southern England also had reason to celebrate. Siegemund got the upper hand against Slovakia’s Jana Cepelova (6:3, 6:4). In the next round she will face the winner of the duel between Elena Gabriela Ruse and Yanina Wickmayer.
Korpatsch did the same as her compatriot and also won her qualifying match in two sets. France’s Carole Monnet gave the 28-year-old no chance at 6: 4, 6: 1 and is now hoping for her big chance against top talent Mirra Andreeva from Russia.
For Eva Lys and Noma Noha Akugue, however, the Wimbledon adventure is already over.
Lys lost to Spaniard Marina Bassols in two sets (2: 6, 4: 6). Meanwhile, Noha Akugue lost out to American Taylor Townsend (2-6, 4-6).
