A reunion of last year’s Masters semi-final protagonists this time already in the group phase has resulted in the draw for the 29th edition of the HTT Tour Finals 2018 at UTC La Ville, which took place live today at noon. In group A of the individual competition, three main actors of the Masters decision 2017 will meet: Lukas Prüger, first in the rankings and 7-time winner of the season, 3-time HTT-Wimbledon Champion and reigning HTT-US Open Champion Vladimir Vukicevic and last year’s finalist of the HTT-Tour-Finals Matthias Wolf. The hammer group will be completed by tour finals newcomer Andreas Szabados.

In group B of the showdown of the best 8 singles players and the most successful 8 doubles teams, which starts next Saturday, things are no less top class. The four-time winner of the season and second in the rankings, Maximilian Wild, leads the second four-man pool, which is also more than top-class with the current HTT Wimbledon Champion Bernhard Scheidl, the three-time season Grand Slam finalist Philipp Jahn and the 2014 HTT Olympic Champion Martin Mayer.
