Felix Mischker and Michael Agwi won a 15K in Antalya last month. Agwi also won the singles title that week. Mischker makes vlogs about Futures events he competes in for the ‘tennis brothers’ YouTube channel, which he runs with his younger brother Lucian, who is also a tennis player.

Felix Mischker participated in his first Futures tournament in April 2022 (in Santa Margherita di Pula), qualifying for the main draw in singles and receiving a wildcard in doubles. Before winning with Agwi, he lost a final with Juan Pablo Paz and reached the semi-finals in Antalya with Yanaki Milev.

Mischker competed in the Koblenz Open in February, his first Challenger tournament. However, he and Martin Klizan lost their first-round match against Christian Harrison and Marcus Willis.  

Michael Agwi made his Futures debut around the same time as Mischker (in May 2022). Aside from his victory in Antalya, he has won 2 Futures singles tournaments in Germany.

At the TennisBase Open, Agwi won two matches in qualifying before winning the tournament. He has also reached the quarter-finals of the Hamburg Challenger and played against Dominic Thiem and current top 40 doubles player Lucas Miedler this year.

After their win, Mischker played in Antalya before entering last week’s Futures tournament in Sarajevo. In Sarajevo, he lost in singles to Matthew Dellavedova (the cousin of basketball player Matthew Dellavedova). He reached the doubles quarter-finals, before losing to Adam Taylor and Finn Reynolds.

Agwi has since lost in the semi-finals of a 15K in Antalya and failed to qualify for last week’s Prostejov Challenger, after losing 4-6 4-6 to Arthur Gea.
