*The Belgian boys on vacation lol*
 

ok, because this forum is not really alive, it's useless to start threads for every tournament because you get one or two replies for each thread. so we can use this one to post results :) Recycling is a good thing you know ;) I will change the title whenever there is a new tournament with Belgians in it.



This week in Palermo (Italy):

R1 ROCHUS Christophe d. SANCHEZ David (ESP) 6-1 6-2
R2 ROCHUS Christophe vs VOLANDRI Filippo (ITA) [6] / MASSU Nicholas (CHI)


In the doubles Christophe and his partner Tom Vanhoudt lost to the Spaniards Fernando Verdasco/Vicente 6-1 6-4

Re: Bergen challenger
 

really? I found the result like this on the site... well it could be a mistake. thanks for pointing out :)

Re: Bergen challenger
 

Olivier bt Malisse 6-2, 6-0 in the final. Apparently Xavier got injured at his shoulder, but he didn't want to retire in this tournament.

Seems like this was a nice start for this tournament. I'll definitely go and wtahc next year! :)
I hope they'll get a bit bigger with the years, so we can have our own Belgian ATP-event!!
