Nice win from the Ukrainian.

13 breaks of serve :help:

well done

:yeah:

13 breaks of serve :help:

:o

Lots of breaks in this one as neither player could hold off the other behind his second serve. A whole lot of nice netplay on show. Stak always had the edge in the third and stayed the course in the midst of all the breaks before he could finally serve it out.

Routine for Ukraine's number 2 player :yeah:

Sergiy :yeah:
Lukasz :hug:

Good job, Sergiy!:yeah:

Impressive. Courts here first two rounds must feel like clay to Stakhovsky, really bad for his game, in the past would have given up and gone home already.
