The Germans managed to win the singles and doubles titles in Halle, Germany. Tommy Haas upset second-seed Novak Djokovic 6-3 6-7(4) 6-1. This is Haas’s first title of the year and twelfth career title. Haas has overcome injuries over the last couple of years, and the win is his first title in two years. Hopefully, this win will give the German some impetus for Wimbledon.
On the doubles side, Germans Christopher Kas and Philipp Kohlschreiber won the doubles title to top off the German titles sweep to the delight of the hometown fans. They took care of the German-Swiss duo of Andreas Beck and Marco Chiudinelli 6-3 6-4. The title is their second championship together.
