I love these promotional gimmicks and Costa do Sauipe looks quite nice.
It'll be interesting to see if Dolgopolov will continue his winning form here.
He has a good draw & is in Montanes half. Is his 1st final in the offing?

Looks like Brazilians are gearing up for Carnival!!!
Nico wins his 8th ATP title (all on clay) & 2nd in Costa do Sauipe (also '09).
Nico extends his title streak to at least one per season to 6 years (2006).
As for Dolgo he follows up his nice run at the Aussie with his 1st final.
As we saw in Melbourne he is definately one to watch.
Both boys are headed to Buenos Aires this week as the #1 & #7 seeds.
They have drawn each other to meet in the quarterfinals.
Pen in a rematch on Friday.
