The men's final was a true spectacle. Mol/Carambula had a blazing start, dominating the first round. But then, fate took an unexpected turn: Brouwer/Tocs were the first to be eliminated, followed by Boermans/Samoilovs, crushing Dutch hopes for a home victory. The showdown came down to the duo of Mol/Carambula and the surprisingly strong team of Huerta/Dressler.
In a thrilling final, Huerta and Dressler found their rhythm and delivered an impressive performance to overcome the favorites. When they scored the final point and crowned themselves the "Kings of the Court," nothing could stop them. It was a dream come true for Dressler – on an international stage, no less. For Tim Berger and his Swedish teammate Jacob Nilsson, sixth place was still a great result, despite their elimination in the semifinals.
The women’s side also saw a thrilling, neck-and-neck race. In the first round, the Dutch-Norwegian duo Van Driel/Olimstad fought hard for a spot in the final, but narrowly missed out to Stam/Ludwig. With each round, the tension rose, and when the final teams faced off, anything seemed possible. Schoon/Álvarez initially dominated the match, but Stam/Ludwig’s comeback had the crowd on their feet. Just seconds before the end, they overtook their competitors and secured the title of "Queens of the Court Utrecht 2024." The stadium erupted in cheers, especially for Ludwig, who had just bid farewell to her home fans the week before.
