Alexandre Muller defeated Kei Nishikori 2-6, 6-1, 6-3 in the final of the ATP 250 in Hong Kong.

After losing the first set 6-2, the Frenchman was able to get the better of Nishikori, who seemed to be in a physical state, particularly in the final set.

He wins the tournament having conceded the first set in all five of his matches. This is the first time in ATP history that such a performance has been achieved.

Alexander Bublik had previously won the Montpellier tournament having conceded the first set, but over four matches, as he benefited from a bye in the first round.

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.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
