Podrets, who had beaten Bencic's compatriot Simona Waltert (WTA 173) in the first round, also put the player from eastern Switzerland, who had returned from maternity leave, in trouble. Bencic was trailing 0:2 in the decisive third set before she was able to turn up the heat again.
In the quarter-finals of her second tournament since her return, Bencic will face the Russian number four seed Maria Timofeyeva (WTA 143).
