Massu wins Dutch Open

AMERSFOORT, Netherlands, July 20 (UPI) -- Seventh-seeded Nicolas Massu of Chile beat Raemon Sluiter, 6-4, 7-6 (7-3), 6-2 Sunday at the Dutch Open to capture his first ATP title of the year.

Massu used his consistent baseline game to outplay the sixth-seeded Dutchman. After taking match point, he fell to his knees with hands covering his face.

Sluiter broke Massu in the third game of the first set, but the Chilean broke back in the next game and finished the set with another break in the 10th game.

That build confidence for the 23-year-old Chilean, who took the second-set tiebreaker before coasting in the final set to 3-0 lifetime against Sluiter.

Massu also won a championship at Buenos Aires in 2002.
