 How did you become aware of the NK-4 tournament series?

I've known Nicolas Kiefer (Kiwi) for many years, as I'm an active tennis player myself. We've already collaborated on several events in the past, so the NK-4 tournament series was naturally familiar to me.

 What do you find particularly interesting and exciting about the tournament format?

The tournament format is very straightforward and practical – that's precisely what makes it so attractive. Anyone can participate, regardless of their skill level, and in my opinion, that's a major plus.

 As a hotel director, what advantages do you see in this tournament format for hotels in general?

From a marketing perspective, this format offers a fantastic opportunity to attract tennis-loving guests to our hotel. More generally, hotels can use such events to better reach and emotionally engage sports-oriented target groups.

 What was the previous contact with the NK4 organizers? How did the tournament registration go?

Our previous experiences with the tournaments, camps, and events have been consistently positive. The collaboration with Nicolas Kiefer and the NK-4 team was excellent and professional – even the tournament registration process went smoothly.

 What do you expect from the tournament? For the hotel, for the surrounding tennis clubs and the participants?

As this is our first tournament of this kind, we are curious to see how it will be received. However, we are approaching it with positive expectations and are very much looking forward to the event – ​​both in terms of our hotel and the surrounding tennis clubs, as well as the participating players.
