The competition was full of excitement even from the very beginning. All players tried their best to fight for the cup. On sep.17th the men’s single final was held between Baghdatis and Ancic. After a excellent play, Baghdatis finally won the champion.
The Chinese players also did well in the tournament. China's wild card entry Sun Tiantian recovered from wobble. Out of expectation of everybody, she beat Russia's Vera Zvonareva on Monday with score of 2 to 1. China's third best player Peng Shuai also beat Colombia's Catalina Castano to get into the second round.
