BANGKOK, Sept. 28 (UPI) -- Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga won the Thailand Open Sunday, defeating favorite Novak Djokovic of Serbia in straight sets.
Tsonga won 7-6 (7-4), 6-4 for his first ATP title.
"I feel great, it's got to be one of the best moments of my life," Tsonga said. "I just played unbelievable tennis against Novak and it was just my dream so I'm really happy."
"I lost the final against a great player," Djokovic said. "Jo wisely used his opportunities and deserved to win his first title. I played a bit too defensively today in the final. You have to use your opportunities and I didn't. It's unfortunate to lose in the final but I lost to a great player so I have no regrets."
Djokovic, who was the top seed in Bangkok, defeated Tsonga in the championship match at the 2008 Australian Open.
