Felix Messenzehl (born 2003)[2] is a German curler from Oberstdorf.[3]
Messenzehl began curling in 2014, and got into the sport because of his father,[2] Markus,[4] who was on the German team at the 2002 Winter Olympics.
Messenzehl made his international début at the 2019 European Youth Olympic Winter Festival, where he was the skip of the German team. There, he led his team of Joy Sutor, Johannes Scheuerl and Zoé Antes to a 3–3 record, missing the playoffs.[5]
Messenzehl was a member of the German junior men's team from 2022 to 2024, playing third on the rink, which was skipped by Benjamin Kapp. The team won silver medals at the 2022[6] and 2023 World Junior Curling Championships, the latter played on home ice in Füssen.[7] The team did not fare as well at the 2024 World Junior Curling Championships, finishing 5th.[8]
For the 2023–24 season Messenzehl, as well as his junior teammates Kapp and Scheuerl, played second for the Marc Muskatewitz rink for men's play. That season, the team won the Aberdeen Classic.[9] The team also won the German Men's Curling Championship in 2024, earning the rink the right to represent the country at the 2024 World Men's Curling Championship.[1] It would be a World Championship début for Messenzehl.[10]
Messenzehl attended the Oberstdorf sports high school.[2]
