Krawietz/Mies To Make Nitto ATP Finals Debut
Kevin Krawietz and Andreas Mies have qualified for the Nitto ATP Finals for the first time. They are the fourth team to clinch their spot at the season finale, to be held at The O2 in London from 10-17 November.
Just two weeks on from winning the Heilbronn crown on the ATP Challenger Tour, Krawietz and Mies captured their first Grand Slam championship title at Roland Garros in Paris.
The pair also clinched two ATP 250 titles at the New York Open (d. Gonzalez/Qureshi) in February and at last week's European Open in Antwerp (d. Ram/Salisbury).
As a result of Krawietz and Mies' qualification, Frenchmen Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut, winners of the Australian Open in January, also secured their spot in London per the Grand Slam rule.
Only three spots remain in the Nitto ATP Finals doubles field, with Juan Sebastian Cabal/Robert Farah, Lukasz Kubot/Marcelo Melo and Raven Klaasen/Michael Venus having already qualified.
