Ivo wins, weeks after not being able to remember his own name.

And Falla reached the final. Not bad!

I wish I watched some of this

Good scheduling by Da King.

[lexpretend]

Bug servers seemed to thrive here - odd, given what we've heard about Bogota's altitude playing havoc with players' serves.

Very good comeback by Ivo.

[Old Hag]

The havoc is more with groundies flying everywhere, not so much the serve. It helps that Ivo runs to net, slams forehands that rarely go in anyway and chip slices backhands.
