Alejandro Davidovich Fokina went through all kinds of emotions in his final at the ATP 250 tournament in Delray Beach against Miomir Kecmanovic.

The Spaniard had the break in the third set and even had two match points on the Serb's serve. On the first of these, he hit a forehand that was off by just a few millimeters.

He was then debreaked and went on to lose 7-5. He said: "Tennis puts you in your place.

I would have liked to have won, but it didn't happen and Miomir deserved it too. It was a very demanding match, and that's what tennis is all about.

Now it's time to rest, I hope the first title of the year will finally come."

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
