Anyone who has seen Andreas Mies on the ATP tour in the past twelve months - especially after his matches alongside Kevin Krawietz - knows that this man has a lot to tell. And he does too. The good news: Christopher Kas is an excellent listener, the "Kasi Live" format on our "tennisnetnews" channel on Instagram is exactly the right platform for discussing interesting topics in detail. As if in connection with "Kramies" the success at the French Open 2019 should of course be mentioned first. Which was actually a bit on the verge from the beginning, because Andreas Mies had serious problems with his neck - which the team, like colleague Krawietz liked to contribute in the live chat, kept busy until the glorious end.

Kevin and he would still have increased from match to match, with Jürgen Melzer and Nicolas Mahut in round two and immediately afterwards with Oliver Marach and Mate Pavic two absolute top pairs. And the best match came at the end, in the final against the two Frenchmen Edouard Roger-Vasselin and Fabrice Martin. The celebrations after the triumph were appropriate to the occasion, but left gaps in memory for Andreas Mies. And making the next appearance in Halle very difficult.
Mies returns home to Auburn
Mies and Krawietz then proved that the victory in Roland Garros was not a flash in the pan, at the US Open, where they reached the semi-finals. The departure there was almost a good thing - because that was the only way Mies could fly with his former coach to his college in Auburn, where the German received an honor that is probably unique in tennis circles: Mies became halfway through the first home game of the glorious Auburn Tigers asked on the field - and frenetically celebrated by his student successors for his success.
And speaking of college tennis: This Thursday, Christopher Kas will immediately greet the next German player who has been looking for and found his luck at a US university: Dominic Koepfer, who last year only played in the round of 16 at Daniil Medvedev at the US Open had failed. Be there at 6pm on Instagram on "tennisnetnews".
