he just won his first title -- over cilic no less.

beating GASQUET AND BERDYCH , NOT DROPPING A SET - not broken in the week.

VERY impressive we have to say.

it's great to see some of the young ones at least start to make their mark by taking some titles after playing the established players.

it's good for the sport and us fans.
