Olympics without ÖVV women after out in Nations Cup
Austria's beach volleyball players will not be represented at the Olympic Games in Paris!
Katharina Schützenhöfer/Lena Plesiutschnig were defeated by the Netherlands in the semi-finals of the European Nations Cup in Jurmala on Saturday. Only the tournament winners will secure a ticket to the Summer Games. The ÖVV men are still in the running after two 2:0 victories against Poland in the quarter-finals. Their semi-final opponent is Latvia.
Alexander Horst and Julian Hörl have a ticket to Paris
Schützenhöfer/Plesiutschnig won their first match in the duel with the Netherlands. After Dorina Klinger/Ronja Klinger lost, it came down to a deciding game in which the red-white-red duo had to concede defeat to Wies Bekhuis/Brecht Piersma 17:19 in the golden set after leading 14:11.
Timo Hammarberg/Moritz Pristauz and Christoph Dressler/Philipp Waller will play on Sunday (11.30 a.m.) for a place in the final, where they will face France or Portugal from 4.30 p.m. onwards. The only Paris ticket for Austria so far was won by Alexander Horst and Julian Hörl in the last round via the Pro Tour rankings.
