Generali Open - Kitzbuhel

An ATP 250 on outdoor clay in Kitzbuhel, in the alpine clay pocket with Gstaad, Bastad and Umag. The courts sit at 760 m, where mid-altitude air takes a little sting out of a slow surface without ever making it quick. Rallies stretch, returners break regularly and games pile up through grinding rather than through holds. Patient heavy-topspin specialists win here.
