ATP 500 Acapulco - Final
1 David Ferrer d 8 Fernando Verdasco - 61 62
Oh yea, that sombrero!
This is David's 14th career ATP title and a tour-leading 3rd title of 2012.
Um: Ferrer is now 18-1 on the year.
The win will bump him back up to #5 after a week at #6.
All 3 of his Acapulco titles have come at the expense of fellow Spaniards:
In '10 Ferrero was his foe and in '11 it was Almagro - both in 3 sets.
David: I am very proud to have won in Acapulco for a third consecutive time.
David next plays Indian Wells where he lost 2nd R to Karlovic last year.
Oh wait... I was there for that match. It was a tough loss.
***
Armada: The doubles too was an all-Spanish affair.
Fernando Verdasco & David Marrero beat Marcel Granollers & Mark Lopez.
That's back-to-back weeks with a dubs title for Fern & David.
They might want to consider keeping this partnership going.

Happy 31st Birthday Jurgen Melzer
While I'm giving bday shout-outs, why not one for Melzer as well.
As a singles player he may not have a ton of years left...
But I do hope he and Petzschner stay around in doubles for a long time.
I enjoy them.
