LE SCAN SPORT – Freshly won the Estoril tournament on Sunday April 7, Hubert Hurkacz received the transfer of €88,125 at the same time as his trophy on the Portuguese court.
The scene is not usual. While the Pole Hubert Hurkacz had just won his first trophy of the season on the clay court of Estoril, the 8th of his career, the tournament organization decided to innovate. On a touch screen installed for the occasion, the public was able to observe the bank transfer due to the winner being made live.
The Pole won in two sets against the Spaniard Pedro Martinez, 77th in the world (6-3, 6-4). This is the first clay court tournament for the powerful server, a hard court specialist. Hubert Hurkacz is now ranked 8th in the world.
