The first week of competition on the ATP Tour was resolved in the doubles table with an unexpected couple as protagonists at the Bank of China Hong Kong Tennis Open, the Italian duo formed by Lorenzo Musetti and Lorenzo Sonego.

After losing in the singles final, Musetti returned to the court with his compatriot to face the doubles title match against Karen Khachanov and Andrey Rublev, which they ended up winning 6-4, 2-6, 10-1.

Musetti and Sonego found their best level in the super tie-break, which allowed them to collect the trophy. This victory marks Musetti’s first ATP Tour success in doubles, while Sonego brings his tally to three trophies.


For their part, at the Brisbane International presented by ANZ Francisco Cabral and Lucas Miedler took over this season at the same point where they left off in 2025. And the Portuguese and the Austrian beat the main favorites Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool this Sunday in Brisbane 6-3, 3-6, 10-8 to win their second consecutive ATP Tour crown.

Cabral and Miedler had finished last year with the crown in Athens and this time they repeated their victory in Queensland in one hour and 24 minutes.

“I think after the preseason we are still doing the same thing as before,” Miedler said. “We had had a good run before stopping and obviously we worked well in preseason. The first tournament is never easy, but we tried to focus on our strengths and improve each game. I think today we all showed a great level and we are happy to have won here.”

For his part, Cabral added that “we want to continue working, winning matches and playing better in the big tournaments. It will be our first year playing all the Masters 1000 and with slightly higher expectations in the Grand Slams, so we hope that at the end of the year we will try to be in Turin for the first time.”
