Christopher Rungkat of Indonesia has brought a pride for his nation by winning French Open Boys' Doubles title with Henri Kontinen of Finland. They ended the came with convincing score of 6-0, 6-3, defeating another unseeded pair of Jaan-Frederik Brunken of Germany and Matt Reid of Australia. En route to the final, Rungkat and Kontinen beat the tournament's first seed pair of Henrique Cunha (Brasil) and Cesar Ramirez (Mexico) in straight set and didn't lose any single set until their victory in today's final.
“I guess team work is the main thing in doubles always. You have to have good communication with your partner and get on with him and that’s how it all starts,” said Continen, when asked the secret to winning junior grand slam doubles titles, as reported in www.itftennis.com. "Of course we feel happy to win a junior grand slam. We played good since the first round until today. We didn’t lose a set. We played with high performances this week. I think Henri and I feel the same – we feel happy,” said Rungkat.
The new grand slam champion was Ana Ivanovic of Serbia, who won her final match against Dinara Safina (RUS), 6-4, 6-3 . Men's singles, as expected, Nadal defeated Federer in straight sets, 6-1, 6-3, 6-0 for his 4th consecutive Roland Garros title.
I'd like to congratulate Christopher Rungkat for his achievement and of course here's my greatest appreciation for him.
