Led by the two-time season Grand Slam winners Patrick Dobesch and Michael Posch, the elitist and eight double-team field of participants for the HTT Tour finals in 2017 has been set since Sunday evening. For the 25. November to 2. The season finale of the best HTT doubles players, which will take place in the UTC La Ville on December 12th, was already confirmed by the first-ranked players Patrick Dobesch/Michael Posch and the HTT Wimbledon champions Christoph Beutler and Matthias Braum. If you have qualified for the HTT double star showdown last weekend at the last HTT Masters 1000 tournament of the year, who has to fit at the most important double tournament of the year, and who still has to tremble for his Masters ticket, you will find in the following report of C. L.
Two double teams, who will be playing together for the first time on the Hobby Tennis Tour, will contest the final of the fantastic November Masters Series 1000 tournament on Wednesday evening, and thus almost all decisions about the eight starting places for the 28th round of the finals of the last doubles event before the Masters are almost complete. The second edition of the HTT-Tour-Finals at the UTC La Ville took place. First of all: The cancellation of the 4-time Grand Slam Champion Beutler-Braun due to Matthias Braun’s injury makes it possible that this year the number 9 doubles of the race classification can cheer about a ticket to the prestigious season finale of the best doubles teams. Lukas Danzer and Georg Weissmann are the lucky players who have diligently scored seven double starts and scored their best result of the season with the final match at the March HTT-500 doubles.
In the third edition of the HTT-Tour-Finals three debutante pairs in the exquisite field in the battle for the double master crown 2017. Two Grand Slam semi-final participations secured a starting place for the Chinese-Austrian duo Daniel Curupis and Johnny Ye, while the Croatian-Serbian top doubles, consisting of Alek Duric and Vladimir Vukicevic, collected the necessary points for a top 8 place at the 1000 level. Patrick Joksch and Mathias Wagner complete the field of participants as masters newcomers, which apart from ever possible short-term illnesses or injuries only raises one question mark.
What are the Tour Finals winners of 2015 Philipp Schneider and Andreas Trinko doing, where Philipp Schneider’s start is hanging by a thread, as already reported. The 37-year-old and 16-time tournament winner in the single is professionally prevented at the final weekend of the HTT-Tour-Finals and is therefore seriously considering to give up his fifth masters start in succession with a heavy heart. This in turn would be a great opportunity for the underdogs Marcus Schischlik and Daniel Pfeifer to make their first joint appearance on the big HTT stage. For the time being, however, it is still quivering for the “TC Bambini-Duo”, because Philipp Schneider would like to ask the HTT-organizer for the option of a start confirmation or to a rejection.
