No idea how I got away with that. Perez held well under pressure. First two tie breaks went the same way. He kept going a minibreak behind and catching up. Both times he just fell a little too far away in them.
Final set Dogic got his (deserved) break after many shots at a break. Then had a chance to serve it out but fell to the 3rd break point of that game. Then he immediately took a 4-0 lead in the final set tie break before Perez took over for his second crown. Opens up the race for no. 1 as well I think. Both are defending a masters coming into the year end.
A fitting final as this is where both players made their break through 2 years ago.
