Ferrer wins Title No 26 in Vienna
Spaniard David Ferrer took a giant stride toward ATP Finals
Qualification after emerging from a tough match with Steve
Johnson as winner of the Erste Bank Open in Vienna.
“It’s been an unbelievable season, winning five titles and it’s
great to be playing well” stated Ferrer in the post match
interview.
Johnson, playing in his first ATP final proved to be stern
opposition. The American took the first set 6-4 behind a solid
serve and aggressive tennis.
There were 3 early breaks in the second set, with Ferrer
emerging in the driving seat to hold on and take the match into
a deciding set.
The final set saw several momentum swings with both players
having opportunities to take a strangehold on the match, but it
wasn’t until Ferrer made a crucial breakthrough with a break at
5-5 that the deadlock was broken. He then served out the match
to win in 2 hours and 14 minutes and take the title.

Cilic secures the Kremlin
Defending champion Marin Cilic successfully defended his Kremlin
Cup title defeating Roberto Bautista Agut 6-4, 6-4 in 1 hour 28
minutes.
Cilic has now won at least one ATP Tour title for every season
dating back to 2008.
The final was a repeat of last years event which also ended in
the same scoreline.
“I felt very comfortable and relaxed on the court. Perhaps the
victory this year is special in the sense that it is usually
more difficult to defend than to win the tournament for the
first time.” stated Cilic in a post match interview.

Berdych Reigns Supreme In Stockholm
Tomas Berdych made it a hat-trick of Stockholm Open titles by
defeating 23 year old American Jack Sock in Sweden.
The Czech ace prevailed in straight sets 7-6(1), 6-2.
Sock had rolled into Sunday’s final posting impressive victories
over Richard Gasquet and Gilles Simon but Berdych was not going
to be his third scalp and the top seeded Czech found his form
late in first set to win the tie-break in comfortable fashion.
The second set was controlled by Berdych who broke Sock twice en
route to clinching his third title in the Swedish capital.
Berdych did not drop a set during his Nordic campaign and will
now look ahead to the remainder of the season in a rich vein of
form having also won in Shenzhen last month.

Ferrer is on a roll right now... and he's done well to force his
way into the ATP Finals final 8.

he (ferru) is pushing 35.
he has no weapons to speak of.
he has little or no leverage in relative terms: average height
of a touring pro in the top 100 is 6 foot 2. and inching higher
with each passing year.
this just shows what hard work can do for you. he is constantly
trying to take his fitness to the next level.
he works hard and stays focused and driven.

He's pulled out of Valencia with an injured elbow. I think he
would have played it, but now he's forced his way into the ATP
8, he's probably concentrating on going in there with a full
bill of health.
