[F] (WC) Prakash Amritraj (IND, 305) l (2) Fabrice Santoro (FRA,57) 36 57Prakash Amritraj about Vijay's inputs about final match - "We talked after the match. He told me my strategy was right, but I just needed to be a little more aggressive."
Kash started well with breaking Magician's serve in the first game but then culdn't control the match, in next game Magician broke back and then take crucial break to won first set ... In first set Kash converted 1 bp which he got and other hand Magician converted 2 bps of 4 he got ... In second set Kash was struggling with his serve (his serve % in second set was 41%), but still he managed to hang on in the match ... But in in 11th game at crucial moment Kash recorded double fault to gave break point and Magician obliged to break ... Then he hold serve to won his consecutive titles at Newport ... Kash must be disappointed on lost chances but very creditable performance from him ... Well done Kash.
Lets hope Rohan and Aisam wins their first ATP tour doubles title as a pair.
