Weekend Winners

So Rafa beat Marat 6-3 6-1 in the Beijing QF. I managed to see the 2nd set, and then watched the tournament's farewell ceremony for Marat: 1 and 2 - very emotional!


Cilic beat Rafa 6-1 6-3 in their SF (I was a bit surprised about that result although I didn't see the match) and then Djokovic beat Cilic 6-2 7-6 to win the Beijing title. Novak will now go back to no. 3 in the world as a result of his win and Andy Murray not being able to defend his Madrid Masters title from last year due to injury (now the Shanghai Masters takes place at this time of year).


In the women's tournament Svetlana Kuznetsova beat Agnieszka Radwanska 6-2 6-4 for the Beijing title. Agnieszka is now back in the top 10 as a result of making the semis in Tokyo and the final in Beijing, good for her!


In Tokyo Tsonga beat Youzhny 6-3 6-3 in the final, so I'm very pleased for him! There are only 3 places left for the Tour Finals in London so hopefully Tsonga will qualify, it would be great to see him play!


I'm looking forward to watching the Shanghai Masters and WTA Linz this week!
