Hoogmartens, Revelli Claim Esteemed Pacific Coast Doubles Championship
March 02, 2025 | Men's Tennis
LA JOLLA, Calif. โ UCLA men's tennis seniors Alexander Hoogmartens and Giacomo Revelli were crowned winners of the 136th Annual Pacific Coast Doubles Championship Sunday afternoon at La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club.
Started in 1890 at the Hotel Del Monte in Monterey, Calif., the Pacific Coast Doubles Championship has seen the likes of Jack Kramer, Ted Schroeder, Bobby Riggs, Pancho Segura, Don Budge, Tony Trabert, Stan Smith, Bob Lutz, Arthur Ashe, Dennis Ralston and John McEnroe lift its trophy.
Hoogmartens also won the title alongside Bruin teammate Drew Baird in 2022. The tournament's latest installment featured new pairs across the board for UCLA: Hoogmartens/Revelli, Gianluca Ballotta/Leo von Bismarck and Aadarsh Tripathi/Emon van Loben Sels. Cassius Chinlund also teamed with assistant coach Wil Martin.
Seeded fifth, Hoogmartens and Revelli beat Utah alums Jayson Blando and Michael Blando in their initial match before taking down tandems from Georgetown, USC and two from Pepperdine. In the final, Hoogmartens and Revelli outlasted Pepperdine's ninth-seeded duo of Aleksa Pisaric and Lasse Poertner. The Bruins dug themselves out of a hole in the match's second-set tiebreaker, mounting a comeback en route to their 4-6, 7-6(8), 6-3 victory.
ย
In Sunday's semifinal round, Hoogmartens and Revelli defeated the top-seeded pair of Bryce Pereira and Ivan Thamma in straight sets. Pereira, who played at UCLA from 2018-2022 and is now an assistant coach for the USC men's tennis team, won the 2015 USTA Boys' 16 doubles national championship with Thamma in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
UCLA continues the dual-match portion of its schedule with the first Big Ten Conference contests in program history. Indiana visits Los Angeles Tennis Center Friday, March 7 at 2 p.m. PT before Purdue stops in on Sunday, March 9 at 11 a.m. PT.
