Lisa-Maria Moser (born 28 March 1991 in Graz) is an Austrian tennis player.

Moser has won two singles and one doubles title on the ITF tour in her career. On 28 July 2014, she reached her best singles ranking of world number 280. On 4 May 2015, she peaked at world number 480 in the doubles rankings.

Career

Moser was given a wildcard for the 2013 Gastein Ladies, where she made her WTA main draw debut appearance,[1] defeating qualifier Elena Bogdan in three sets to set up a second round match against Mona Barthel.[2] However, the German, ranked number 31 in the world, had to retire with an injured shoulder in the second set, to send Moser through to a quarterfinal match-up with Andrea Hlaváčková of the Czech Republic.[3] Her Czech opponent proved to be her decline, and the Austrian debutant lost in straight sets.[4] As a result of her first WTA International-category quarterfinal appearance, Moser's career ranking jumped 331 places to world number 394.[5]

Later in the year, Moser was also given a wildcard into the doubles event of the 2013 Generali Ladies Linz partnering countrywoman Nicole Rottmann, but they lost to top seeds Gabriela Dabrowski and Alicja Rosolska in the first round.

Generali Ladies Linz controversy

Ranked world number 322 in October 2013, Moser was awarded a wildcard into the main singles draw of the 2013 Generali Ladies Linz.[6] However, just prior to the start of the tournament, it was announced that world number 10 Angelique Kerber would contest the event.[7] As the original draw had already been released without Kerber's name, the draw was revised (excluding Moser) and she was subsequently given the top seed. Nonetheless, Kerber was placed in the bottom half of the draw and several seeds were moved around to accommodate her late entry. The move was seen as controversial because no top-10 player is allowed to participate in more than two International-level tournaments per season. Kerber had been allowed to play three (Monterrey, Washington, D.C. and Linz) because, in the summer, she played the International-level event in Washington D.C. when the Premier-level tournament in Carlsbad was over-subscribed. Kerber, who was within points of qualifying for the year-end WTA Tour Championships in Istanbul, was criticised for competing in (and later winning) a lower-level event to achieve substantial points and then withdrawing from her next scheduled tournament in Moscow, a Premier-level event. Moser, who had withdrawn upon request from tournament director Sandra Reichel, cited "personal reasons" as the official explanation for her absence.[6]

A year later, at the 2014 edition of the tournament, Moser was again given a wildcard to compete in the singles draw, where she ultimately lost to world number 44 Tsvetana Pironkova in the first round.[8]
