  • Munich Final: Gonzalez vs. Bolelli

    5/4/08 5:28 AM | Jonathan Morgan
     - Gonzalez will look to claim his second title of the year while Bolelli will try to shake the nerves of playing in his first ATP final.

    Now where have we seen this before? An experienced player vs. a relative newcomer in the finals of an ATP event in 2008.

    Delray Beach: Nishikori def. Blake
    Zagreb: Stakhovsky def. Ljubicic
    Houston: Grannolers def. Blake

    Tough luck for James to be on this list twice, but the point is made. Although Gonzalez will be a fine favorite with his match experience in these type of matches while Bolelli could come out swinging in the “what have I got to lose?” mindset.

    Gonzalez will look to use his awesome forehand to gain control of the points, but will also look to mix it up with his slice backhand. The same slice that gave Safin fits in the quarterfinals and got El Aynaoui on the frits on the semis.

    Bolelli will look to ride the wave of emotion through to the final and try to outgrind Gonzalez to the title. The Munich crowd will certainly get their money's worth with this finale.
