Newport: Santoro, Mahut To Clash For Title
posted Sunday Jul 15, 2007 12:42pm by Dylan Quinn

Number four seed Fabrice Santoro has kept his perfect record against South-African Wesley Moodie in-tact with a comfortable straight sets victory over the big serve-volley specialist. Santoro took just under one hour and twenty minutes to put away the unseeded world number 137, winning 82% of points on his first service along the way.

 

Santoro has now won his way through to the final where he will face compatriot Nicolas Mahut. Mahut, who is a recent finalist at Queen's in London, needed three sets to get past Dick Norman of Belgium but ran away with the match in the third, eventually winning out 64 67 62 in one hour and fifty minutes. Mahut will be looking to secure his first ATP Title, in what will be only his second final.

Singles - Semifinals
[5] N Mahut (FRA) d D Norman (BEL) 64 67(2) 62
[4] F Santoro (FRA) d W Moodie (RSA) 76(2) 63
