Horvat leads second group in German Super League after first weekend

Horvat left proceedings with six points which saw him ahead by only a few legs on leg difference.

He claimed victories over Daniel Klose (6-3), Nico Kurz (6-5) and finally Thomas Kohnlein (6-0) on the opening day.

On the second day, it was Rene Eidams (6-3), Maik Langendorf (6-3) and finally Karsten Koch by the same scoreline to cap off a really successful weekend.

Daniel Klose and Nico Kurz round out the top three with 6 and 5 points respectively in the first iteration of Group B in the German Super League.

Sixteen participants are divided into two groups. Spread over four match days, a player from a specific group will play twice against the other players from his group. This means that everyone will play fourteen group matches. The top four of each group will advance to the quarter-finals. These will be played just like the semi-finals and the final on Sunday June 14. The winner of this event will receive an invitation to the World Championship.

Gabriel Clemens, Kai Gotthardt, Jens Kniest, Kevin Münch, Sascha Stein, Christian Bunse, Steffen Siepmann, Michael Unterbuchner are the players in the other group. The first matches in this group were played last week and Clemens immediately made a gap with his rivals.
