The 16-year-old Theo Berger won the title in his first HTT-500 finale and caused a huge sensation on Tuesday afternoon.Never appeared in 9 attempts at the 500cc level and only entered the semi-finals once – at last year’s third-placed June HTT 500 tournament – the August HTT 250 champion took off last weekend for an unprecedented high-fly that could not be stopped in the final by the big title favourite Christopb Beutler.Berger is the second winner of the September HTT-500 championship after last year’s winner Christoph Niedhart.It is also remarkable that the 16-year-old young star celebrates his 300th birthday.HTT-500 tournament which won the Open era without losing a set, and with Matthias Wolf and Christoph Beutler for the first time in his career beat two top ten players in a row.

With fantastic weather conditions on one of the last days of late summer, bright sunshine and a pleasant 20 degrees Celsius air temperature, Christoph Beutler and Theo Berger, a youngster traded as a clear underdog, faced each other for the second time in their HTT career. Christoph Beutler, who is aiming for 500 points for the HTT Tour finals qualification, were on the other side.The first duel was also at the September HTT-500 tournament, in the last year’s eighth-finals, when Beutler sent the then 15-year-old home with 6:3,6:4.But that’s not the only reason why all signs point to Beutler’s victory.The extra class of the 2-time HTT-Wimbledon finalist seemed to be too clear, not to mention the 34 year old’s experience.Even the wretched final record of the Marswiese top star didn’t seem to matter, and so all HTT experts and most of the participants in the betting competition on Facebook had the 5-time winner from Neuwaldegg, who was seeded number 1, on their cards.

Attentive observers of the events of the 24th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.September HTT-500 tournament, however, had to wait until the 100th anniversary of the end of September.Seasonal events, a Theo Berger, who played himself with aggressive baseline tennis without losing a set, and also eliminated Matthias Wolf, who was more highly valued and known to be the damned constant, in two sets.Already in this semifinal Berger was “on fire” and with his forehand he was playing a decisive role.And right at the beginning of his third career finale, the junior was also under a great deal of power.Until 2:1 Berger did what he had to do, kept his serve and the first pass open before Beutler made his first big mistake.Three double mistakes in a row, so the title-aspirant gave the underdog the first break of this final to the 3:1, and had brought the decision practically by himself.Surprisingly, Berger was able to satisfy his opponent’s steep lead in the form of this one break after 32 minutes to the 1-0 lead.

Whoever believed in the expected turnaround for Beutler’s benefit was then disillusioned in the fifth game at the latest.Berger with a mighty performance on the return, Beutler weakening especially on the backhand side, and so the first break of the second round went to Theo Berger 3:2.The fact that the young star acted cool and shaggy in the episode, and didn’t let himself get upset in the finish, was probably just as surprising as the fact that Christoph Beutler, who seemed to be insecure and frustrated, could no longer be too much.In the next serve game, Beutler came up to 30:30, but with two forehanded shots, Berger crushed Beutler’s hopes of a prompt re-break and took the lead 4:2.Once again, Beutler was able to shorten the game to 3:4 and increase the pressure on the serving young star.But Berger remained calm and focused, constant in his game and without any major problems he scored 5:3, while Beutler again weakened the match loss when trying to avert it.Two match points defended, the top seeded Marswiese star made a decisive fourth double error at the end, and had to accept the 3:6,3:6 defeat after only 64 minutes played with the second break.
