   Points won by each set: | 25-12, 26-33, 34-16 |
   Points won directly behind the serve:
   23 % Gonzalez – 15 of 63
   18 % Robredo – 15 of 83

   A 5th and last match in their rivalry (3-2 for the Chilean). Deciding was the 4th game of the 3rd set when Gonzalez [7] broke after six deuces (14 minutes). In his another event, Robredo [11] plays a similarly lopsided final in Metz, and that time he prevails (against Murray).

   Gonzalez’ route to his 9th title:
   1 Alexander Peya 3-6, 6-3, 7-5
   2 Paul Capdeville 6-1, 6-2
   Q Hyung-Taik Lee 7-5, 6-7(5), 6-4
   S Ivan Ljubicic 2-6, 6-3, 6-4
   W Tommy Robredo 6-1, 3-6, 6-1

   # Gonzalez was two games away from defeat in three different matches, the closest to lose against Ljubicic because dropped his serve to trail 3:4 in the decider against a big-serving player who had defeated him several times in the past

   Serve & volley: Gonzalez 1/2, Robredo 1/1
