HALLE, Germany—Winning never gets old. Especially with a pal by your side.

This week in Halle, Jannik Sinner and Hubert Hurkacz are reuniting on the doubles court. The two have previously joined forces on numerous occasions across many surfaces, including last year at the Terra Wortmann Open.

But on Wednesday, the duo pulled off a feat they hadn’t achieved together before: winning from match point down.

Taking on third seeds Nathaniel Lammons and Jackson Withrow, Hurkacz and Sinner edged out the Americans for a 6-4, 5-7 [11-9] victory.
