Davydenko, Roddick, Cilic Collect ATP Titles During Week 1 2010
“The first set was 6-0, everybody saw it,” the 28-year-old Davydenko said. “But if you saw the match, it was not so easy. I tried every point but Nadal had very good concentration and played very well every point. I really had the chance to win some games, but I played a little bit slowly, he played much faster…[In the end] I think he lost a little bit of concentration and lost the match. For me it was a really good fight today.” Nadal remains without a title since May 2009 at Rome.
