Annett Kaufmann, Charlotte Lutz, Tomislav Pucar and Alvaro Robles completed the Europe Top 16 main draw after qualification in Montreux. Eight players in each category competed for two remaining places, with the successful quartet joining the tournament’s directly admitted contenders.

Kaufmann defeated Anna Hursey in four games during her event debut. Lutz also came through her first appearance, beating Izabela Lupulesku after an earlier victory against home player Rachel Moret.

Pucar advanced through victories over Daniel Habesohn and Iulian Chirita. Robles defeated Pedro Osiro and Joao Geraldo, recovering from an opening-game loss in his first match before winning the final qualification contest in straight games to secure his place.
