WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID
Tomas Berdych: "It feels pretty good to have won a second title this season. When I was 2-4 down in the second set, I remained positive and focused on my game. Against Jo you have to stay positive until the last point. I am happy that I was able to turnaround the match and that’s what makes this title special."
On his bid to qualify for the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals: "London is always a goal every season. You have to play well the whole year to qualify. It will be special for me, if I make it for the third year in a row."
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga: "I feel bad, because it was a good final and a close score. I think we played a great match and had many opportunities, but he played well. I tried to play my best tennis today. Of course, I am trying to qualify for London, I am not there yet and I need to earn more points."
Bruno Soares: "I am very happy. I really enjoy playing and being able to win such a tough match – coming back from a set and a break – was even better."
Marcelo Melo: "We are happy to be here and to win. We’ll be back here next year."
