Erler is missing from the Kitzbüheler Doppel: Defense of the title!

Kitzbühel, Österreich - Alexander Erler, the defending champion at the Kitzbüheler double tennis tournament, will not compete this year. The 27-year-old decided to change his partner, which leads to his waiver of the title defense. After the Wimbledon tournament, Erler will play with American Robert Galloway (ATP-37) in the future. The new duo will join the competition in Los Cabos, Mexico in two weeks.

At the same time as the Kitzbühel tournament, Erler will compete with Galloway in Washington. In the first round of Wimbledon, Erler competes alongside Constantin Frantzen. You will meet Jenson Brooksby and Adam Walton.

defending champion and previous partnerships

Erler was previously successful with Lucas Miedler, who now plays against the British-American duo Jamie Murray and Rajeev Ram together with Francisco Cabral. Miedler and Erler are three times the title bearer at the Kitzbühel tournaments and have a promising past in doubles.

This year's Earler waiver not only arises from the desire for a new partnership, but also represents a strategic step in his career. The changeover to Galloway could open up new opportunities and dynamics in the double game.

View of Wimbledon

The Wimbledon men Doppel 2024 took place with 62 participants and was held from July 3 to 13, 2024. The winner of the previous year is not mentioned, but the play area was grass, which often offers the players a special challenge. There were numerous exciting games in the first round.

The first encounters included a duel between Erler and Miedler, which they lost just 1-2 against the combination of Nathaniel Skupski and Marcus Venus. This illustrates how hard the level in men is. Further encounters showed that other topped players in the ATP ranking list also had to deliver strong performances in the first round.

In the coming time it will be exciting to observe how the development around Erler and Galloway unfolds and whether they can build on their previous successes when they first meet in Los Cabos.
