Over the past few days, our international team of athletes has celebrated incredible successes at important tournaments and competitions! We are immensely proud of our athletes, who have once again delivered outstanding performances. From victory at the German Beach Tour in Hamburg to a career highlight for the Klinger sisters at the Elite 16 in Ostrava - last weekend was a true celebration of success.
Victory at the German Beach Tour in Hamburg: Our girls are on fire!
The Kunst/Paul team secured victory at the German Beach Tour in Hamburg - and did so with an impressive performance. Point by point, game by game, the two athletes played themselves into a real frenzy. Their determination and team spirit took them all the way to the final, where they faced the highly seeded team of Lippman/Bock. In an exciting and intense match, Kunst/Paul came out on top and took the title! We are delighted that their tireless efforts have finally paid off. This victory is not only a confirmation of their hard work, but also a highlight in their career.
Our men on the German Beach Tour: semi-finals and more!
The men also competed at the highest level. Robin Sowa reached the final and put in an outstanding performance. Momme Lorenz and Thilo Rietschel also fought their way through to the semi-finals - what a great result for the Athletes Eyewear team! We are incredibly proud of our boys, who put so much heart and energy into their work. Simply "awesome"!
International successes: The Klinger sisters in 4th place at the Elite 16 in Ostrava
Our team is causing a stir worldwide! At the Elite 16 in Ostrava, the Klinger sisters achieved their best career result to date with a 4th place. Their performance at the highest level of the World Tour is an incredible achievement. It shows once again what happens when pure energy, will and passion come together. These two athletes have proven time and time again, not only at this tournament but throughout their careers, that they are among the best. We are extremely proud of them and look forward to accompanying them on their way to the 2028 Olympics in LA.
Top success at the Austrian Tour: Berger/Hohenauer dominate the tournament
Our ladies Berger/Hohenauer showed at the Austrian Tour what it means to play at the highest level. Even at such a young age, they dominated the tournament right from the start and took victory. It is impressive what class they are already showing at this age. At Athletes Eyewear, we have been focusing on the next generation and investing in young talent since the beginning - and these two definitely have the potential to achieve great things.
Mike Kofler, Founder of Athletes Eyewear: A look behind the scenes
"I am incredibly proud of what is currently developing at Athletes Eyewear. After the Olympic Games, there were many changes in our team of athletes. Some have ended their careers, others like Ahmann/Helvig could unfortunately no longer be retained financially after the Olympic gold medal. In recent months, we have tried out many new constellations and mastered new challenges.
But one thing has become clear to me: We focus on athletes who enjoy being with us, who understand and love our vision and with whom we can work together to achieve success. The fact that we are a breeding ground for success can be seen not only in the Olympic gold medal won by Ahmann/Helvig, but also in the most recent victories. Our aim is to support young talents and turn them into winners. We attach great importance to the character of the athletes - having their heart in the right place is just as important to us as sporting success. Then they are part of the Athletes family!"
Conclusion:
The successes of our athletes at international tournaments and national competitions show that we are on the right track. We are proud of each and every one of them and look forward to continuing to support them on their journey. At Athletes Eyewear, we focus on hard work, passion and, above all, the right character - because this is the only way to ensure long-term success.
Stay tuned - the best is yet to come!
