The bett1HULKS Championship in Cologne is at its end with Alexander Zverev taking on Diego Schwartzman for the title.
The final match of the bett1HULKS Championship in Cologne will take place on Sunday starting at 19.30 CET. It will be Alexander Zverev against Diego Schwartzman in a match that has all the necessary ingredients of being a great match. Zverev has been on a tear in Cologne in the past fortnight winning all of his matches. While there have been occasional struggles he always found a way to win and today he will need to do the same. Diego Schwartzman had a bumpy ride to the final as well especially in the match against Davidovich Fokina which he should have lost. Since then he has looked very good and he enters this match believing he can win it.
This will be their 3rd official match with Schwartzman having the upper hand winning two of those three matches. One of them was played back in 2014 and if we discredit it then it's 1-1. The most recent one played at the US Open in 2019 was won by Schwartzman as well. The odds heavily favour the German which is expected as he has shown pure class in Cologne. Playing on home soil and in front of his fans and family helps as well. Despite the overwhelming odds in his Zverev's this will be a close match that could easily go in three sets.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026
- Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
