45 % Muller – 39 of 86
After a bad 2012 season, the 30-year-old Tursunov [119] regained his solid form in 2013… defeating Muller [70], the Russian marked his first appearance in the last four at the ATP level since June 2011 (loses the Marseille semifinal to Tomas Berdych quickly though). He saved three set points in the tie-break against Muller (service winner, two forehand winners – one on Muller’s serve) to win it 9/7. In the decider he trailed *4:5 but held at 15.
