Final:
Salazar beats Pezzota again
It
was a repeat of last week's Resistencia final in Argentina, and
it was the same result as Mexican second seed Arturo Salazar
beat Argentinean qualifier Robertino Pezzota in straight
games to claim a second successive title.
"Arturo was too sharp and confident, too good tonight for
Pezzota," said an observor.
"Both players, similar style, like to move their opponent to the
front then to volley even a good crosscourt. Arturo using the
working boast and straight drops better, especially on the
backhand.
"The First game even and long till 5-all when a long rally took
its toll on the Argentinean. The third game like the second, saw
a quick Arturo comanding unil match ball. The defending champ
fought back to 8/10 but wasnt enough.
"Arturo was extremely happy, even with some sparkly eyes
receiving his trophy (a guampa used to drink Terere or Mate,
traditional infusion from South America)."

Zayas comeback stops top seed in Asuncion
Chris Gordon took a two game lead before a
stunning comeback from unseeded Mexican Edgar Zayas spelt
the end for the top-seeded American.
In the semi-finals Zayas will meet 33-year-old Argentinean
qualifier Roberto Pezzota, who continued the fine run of
form that saw him rise a massive 279 places in the June
rankings, as he beat third-seeded Kiwi Martin Knight in straight
games.
No upsets in the botton half of the draw as Arturo Salazar
kept up his bid for a second successive tournament win with a
quick victory over Juan Gomez to set up another all-Mexican
match with Eric Galvez, who beat Jamaica's Chris Binnie
in straight games.
