With Joel Schwärzler and Sandro Kopp, two Austrians made it to the quarter-finals of the Challenger tournament in Tulln on the Danube on Wednesday.
The 19-year-old Vorarlberger eliminates none other than the top defended defending champion Jan Choinski in the round of 16.
With 7: 6 (2), 6-2, Schwärzler has the better end. He now meets either the Indian Sumit Nagal or the Romanian Filip Jianu.
Sandro Kopp acts no less remarkably: The Tyrolean beats the Ukrainian Vitali Sachko, 6: 1, 6: 7 (2), 6: 4. The number four on the seed list is now waiting for Kopp with the Argentinier Trungelliti.
