The final Saturday in Kitzbühel will take place with Austrian participation: Alexander Erler and Lucas Miedler started where they left off on Thursday. In contrast to the thriller win against Guillermo Duran and Ariel Behar, the two local heroes were now allowed to play on the center court. And the matinee developed into a roller coaster ride of emotions. At first it looked like a smooth victory for the favorites, then Erler / Miedler came back into the match with a lot of momentum. And, as in the quarter-finals, they kept their nerves in the semifinals: The match tie-break went to Erler and Miedler, who are now facing the greatest triumph of their careers.
Alexander Erler drew attention to himself in the individual with his win against Carlos Alcaraz, Lucas Miedler failed in the qualification. In the final for the double title in Kitzbühel, the two play either against Matwe Middelkoop and Roman Jebawy or against Pedro Martinez and Marc Polmans. Martinez still has the chance on Friday to make it into the singles final with a win against Daniel Altmaier.
