Vaccari and Hofer win the Brixen spring tournament

The former professional player Hofer, who still appears in position 1316 in the WTA rankings, was the top favorite in the women's tournament. The 23-year-old from Val Gardena reached the final without losing a set: In the quarter-finals she defeated Alessia Piccoliori 6:3, 6:1 in the Val Gardena derby, and in the semi-finals she also confidently defeated Caterina Odorizzi (CT Argentario) 6:1, 6: 4 out. In the final, Hofer met Sophie Walzl. The Gargazonian also celebrated two clear victories against Elisa Crazzolara (6:3, 6:2) from Tennis Brixen and against the 2.6 player Sveva Bernardi (6:3, 6:4). In the final, Hofer lived up to her role as favorite and prevailed against Walzl in two sets 6:1, 6:3. It was the 23-year-old's second Open victory this season, after she won her home tournament in Ortisei three weeks ago. There was a surprise winner in the men's category with Simone Vaccari (2.4). The player from Ravenna clearly defeated Gabriel Moroder from Val Gardena in the quarter-finals with 6:4, 6:0, and in the semi-finals he also eliminated the top favorite from Völs, Horst Rieder, with 2:6, 6:3, 6:0. In the final, Vaccari faced local hero Michael Kerschbaumer. The man from Brixen, who was already in the final at the Open tournament in Val Gardena, shot down Tobias Tappeiner from Paulsen 6-0, 6-3 in the second semi-final. In the final, Kerschbaumer had to admit defeat in two very exciting, even sets with 6:7, 4:6.
