Davydenko edges to first title in New Haven

Russian Nikolay Davydenko defeated Lleyton Hewitt in the final of the Pilot Pen Tennis in New Haven in the battle of the unseeded players to bag his first title of the year. In what was an incredibly close match, the two men matched each other blow for blow in the first set before the Russian edged the tie-breaker 9-7. This boosted Davydenko's confidence and he went on to take a 3-0 lead in the second, holding on to this advantage and claiming the match in just under 2 hours. Both men will now head to Flushing Meadows ready for an assault on the final Slam of the year and the final chance to earn big ranking points.
