ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament, Brasil Open, SAP Open

ABN AMRO Tennis Tournament

With out any of the other top 4 in the tournament the path was safe for Roger Federer to win his 71st title and has extended his streak of winning one ATP tournament a year to 12 years. Roger Federer defeated Juan Martin Del Potro 6-1 6-4 in the final. The doubles winners were Llodra and Zimonjic.

Brasil Open

Nicolas Almagro

Proving he deserved his world number 11 ranking Nicolas Almagro won the Brasil title, all 11 of his titles have come on clay courts and this is the third time he has won here! The Spaniard beat Filippo Volandri 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, Volandri reached his first ATP world tour final in six years! The doubles was won by the top seeds Butorac and Soares.

SAP Open 

It seems one of the 'Future Winners' from 'Future Winners Friday' has won another tournament quicker than expected! Milos Raonic, the defending champion, won in San Jose, ahead of the number 1 and 2 seeds Gael Monfils and Andy Roddick. To read my profile on Milos Raonic click here. He defeated Denis Istomin 7-6(3), 6-2. Another  from my 'Future Winners Friday' feature did very well, Ryan Harrison reached the semi-finals, losing to Milos Raonic, Harrison was not seeded to read his profile check here.

 Doubles was won by Knowles and Malisse.

Ah I have now caught up with the tournaments starting on 13/02/12 and I will post the results of the tournament starting 20/02/12 before the results of the tournaments starting 27/02/12 on Sunday, meaning I will have caught up!

The tournament to look out for is definitely the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championship!
