First Latin Battle of 2018 16/03/2018

4 March © Egli The 2017 GrandSlam Latin Final ended up being a very closely fought battle between the couples considered to be the likely successors to Gabriele Goffredo and Anna Matus, MDA: Armen Tsaturyan - Svetlana Gudyno, RUS, and Marius-Andrei Balan - Khrystyna Moshenska, GER.

In Shanghai, CHN, it was a margin of only two decimal points that made the difference between Marius-Andrei and Khrystyna in first and Armen and Svetlana in second.

These two couples face off for the first time this year in the inaugural leg of the GrandSlam Series in Helsinki, FIN. Both come off wins at prestigious World Opens in January and February: the Germans won Pforzheim, GER, and the Russians Copenhagen, DEN, and Lisbon, POR.

This is an 8-camera production in HD covering the decisive stages of the 2018 GrandSlam Latin Helsinki. The programme is made up of four parts: the full-length semi-final, interviews with the finalists, the full-length final and interviews with the medallists. Approximately 90-minutes running time. The quarterfinal is the first bonus feature. An in-depth interview with Marius-Andrei Balan - Khrystyna Moshenska is the second. Watch it for free!
