Ilya Ivashka is the first Belarusian to hold the ATP title since 2003
9.47 am: Ilya Ivashka is the first Belarusian tennis player to win a match on the ATP Tour since 2003. The 27-year-old did it in Winston-Salem, USA, where he was very strong against Michael Yemer of Sweden in the final: 6-0 6-2.
In a side game Iwashka lost only two points on his serve, which took 55 minutes to win. It was the shortest final of this tennis season.
“It’s a dream week. A great match,” said Ivashka, number 63 in the world, who has never won a top title before. “I’ve been waiting a long time for this.”
The last tennis player from Belarus was Max Mirnyi in Rotterdam in 2003.
