Fed Defeats Nikolay Davydenko to Clinch Doha Crown
World #2 Roger Federer won another the Doha ExxonMobil Open trophy beating former champ Nikolay Davydenko 63, 64 in the championship match of the MEN'S ATP
tourney in Doha.
The Swiss player captured the title for the third time, post successive wins in '05 and '06, earning Roger the lone three-time champ in tournament. The triumph designated 67 Tour titles for Federer, who nabbed 250 Computer points plus $177, 000 in prize winnings.
Also, the victory in Doha gives Raja the very best in planning for the Australian Open, which takes place soon. Federer is the defending champion in Melbourne as he searches for a 17th Major singles trophy.
The second seed Roger was tight on service during the tournament, only dropping service once in 42 service games to get to the title match, and was equally as amazing against Davydenko. The Swiss did not face a break point and won 79 per cent of points behind his first serve.
Fed made a quick start to the contest, leaping to a 3-0 cushion just before closing out the first set on serve. The russian was pushed to generate close to his best tennis to stay in the game with Roger in the set two, but his resistance fell apart in the 9th game as Federer broke at love before wrapping up the win in One hour, 19 minutes. Raja is now 23-3 at the atp tournament.
So Fed wins! Wonderful news!
