Bautista Agut ends Misolic run to claim 11th title

Roberto Bautista Agut claimed his 11th career title on Saturday when he ended the dream run of Austrian world number 205 Filip Misolic in the Kitzbuehel clay-court final.

Text size:

The 34-year Bautista Agut triumphed 6-2, 6-2 against Misolic who was making his main tour debut.

Earlier Saturday, the Austrian had needed two and a half hours to defeat Yannick Hanfmann in a semi-final held over from Friday due to rain.

"I enjoyed the final, I think I managed the pressure very well," said world number 20 Bautista Agut after his second title of 2022.

"I knew I was a little bit the favourite today, but he had so many good wins this tournament and I knew it was going to be difficult. I played a very good match."
