Theo Arribage and Albano Olivetti continued a fruitful start to their partnership by claiming the ATP 250 title at home at the Open Occitanie on Sunday.

The fourth-seeded home favorite defeated third-seeded Konstantin Franzen and Robin Haas 7-6(6), 6-1 to lift the trophy at Montpellier’s indoor court. Alibach and Holli only made their debuts for the team in September last year, but they have already won three tour-level trophies (Almaty 2025, Auckland 2026, Montpellier 2026).

“This has been an incredible week for me and Albano,” Alibach said. “This is my first win in France, so I’m very happy with this title. It was a very difficult first game. We lost a set, [were a break down]and faced a double break, so it wasn’t easy. We stayed focused, tried our best and we are very happy with this win. ”

Olivetti added: “This week, it started very complicated and our first game was difficult. Even the quarter-finals were not easy, but somehow we got into a better rhythm together. We had a very good semi-final, a very good final, so we are very happy to win our first game together in France. We had a lot of support from the crowd, a lot of family and friends, so it was a very special week and a special win for us.”

The French pair conceded all five break points in the first set of Sunday’s final, according to Infosys ATP statistics. However, Alibacchi and Olivetti kept their cool in the ensuing tie-break and then battled hard in the second set to win the championship in 79 minutes.

Arribage and Olivetti now lead 3-0 in the Lexus ATP Head2Head series against Frantzen and Haase, having defeated the German-Dutch pair in all three matches of the ATP 250 event. Arribach, 25, has now won four ATP Tour titles, while Olivetti, 34, has won five.
