Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell
Maximo Gonzalez and Andres Molteni continued their impressive season on Sunday when they captured their third tour-level title of the year as qualifiers at the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell.
In a tight clash, the Argentines recovered from squandering one championship point in the second to eventually defeat top seeds Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski 6-3, 6-7(8), 10-4.
Gonzalez and Molteni won 80 per cent (37/46) of their first-service points and raced clear in the Match Tie-break to earn their 20th tour-level win together in 2023 in one hour and 52 minutes.
Earlier this season, Gonzalez and Molteni clinched trophies on clay in Cordoba and Rio de Janeiro. With their victory, they have climbed four spots to fourth in the Pepperstone ATP Live Doubles Team Rankings.
Koolkhof and Skupski, who clinched seven titles as a team last year, were seeking their first crown this season.
