    Points won by each set: | 31-28, 29-16 |
    Points won directly behind the serve:
    15 % Kuerten – 8 of 51
    13 % Norman – 7 of 53

    Indoor conditions, and an important match in hindsight between the two best clay-court players at the time. It was five days after their Roman final, and Kuerten took his revenge in a convincing style which certainly would help him a few weeks later during their Roland Garros final. Norman [4] started well in Hamburg, he led 2:0* (30/15), he also led with a break in the 2nd set (2:1) – then Kuerten [7] began to play in the zone, and the Swede was pretty helpless in five successive games.

    Serve & volley: Kuerten 2/3, Norman 0
