Hubert Hurkacz has the right to a full page in the Moselle Open guestbook. The Pole was able to stand out during the 2021 edition with two titles in as many finals in Metz. Narrative.
It’s a moment of grace that no other player had experienced before him. At 24, Hubert Hurkacz sees double and wins two titles in the space of a few hours on the same court. A feat worthy of his 1m96 height.
Engaged in both tables, in singles and doubles with Jan Zieliński, Hubert Hurkacz did not tremble at any time, sweeping with his compatriot the number 3 then 1 seeds of the tournament. A masterful duo who won the final two sets to zero.
At the same time, the 13th in the world was fighting for hegemony in singles. He quickly became a steamroller. First with a clear victory against Lucas Pouille, then against Andy Murray, three-time Grand Slam winner and Peter Gojozvick, already a winner in Moselle, and finally in the final against the Spaniard Pablo Carreño Busta, seeded number 2 in the tournament. Over these four matches, the giant did not leave a single crumb to his opponents with no set conceded. High level.
A victory which then allows him to win a fourth title in his career in as many finals. A moment out of time for Hubert Hurkacz who will lift another trophy a few hours later, that of the doubles. Never seen before in the history of the Moselle Open.
