Sock v. Monaco in the final. Hard to know who to root for there, for me. But Monaco is 32, and his ranking has dropped into the 130s due to injury lay-off. It'd be nice to see him get a last hurrah, and get his ranking up for the latter stage of his career.

Monaco has surprised me, I thought he was close to done. He's done well here but I'd still probably favour Sock to take the title.

Sock will likely win it, but nice run by Pico.

And Pico did it! Poor Sock was really cramping at the end. But great win for Monaco. By winning, I believe they said he'll get into the main draw at RG. He'll go up 65 ranking places to 86.

This is a great result for Monaco, congratulations to him.
