In the decisive Queen & King of the Court final at Active City Arena, Ehlers/Wickler were crowned Kings and Cheng/Hughes crowned as the Queens of Hamburg! Both teams delivered outstanding performances, scoring the most points in the thrilling finals.
For the German duo Ehlers/Wickler, it was a triumphant home victory and their third Queen & King of the Court title! In the final round, they were neck and neck with the Latvian pair Smedins/Tocs, but in the last two minutes, Ehlers/Wickler surged ahead to secure the win. Smedins/Tocs took second place, while André/George claimed the bronze. Just missing the podium, Germans Winter/Pfretzschner finished in fourth place.
The women’s competition was equally thrilling until the very end. World champions Cheng/Hughes went head-to-head with the world number one team, Duda/Ana Patricia. The American duo Cheng/Hughes secured a stunning series of points just before the finish, clinching the victory and surpassing the Brazilian team Duda/Ana Patricia, who settled for silver. The bronze went to Kraft/Cannon.
