HEWITT MEETS WAYNE IN FINAL

Hewitt reached the first red clay court final after a decade with victory over Evgeny Korolev on Saturday. He won him quite comfortably and in straight sets (7-6 (4), 6-4). The final is about to start on Sunday. Hewitt is going to face the Former world No.1 Wayne Odesnik in the Sunday's title match. Wayne reached the final winning over Germany's Bjorn Phau. He too win him in straight sets. With his semifinal win, Hewitt reached his 498th match win. He win definitely come close to Roger Federer and Carlos Moya but he cannot win over Roger as he has still lot of time in tennis.

Hewitt failed to win a tournament in 2008 for the first time since he turned pro in 1998. He ended 2008 ranked No. 67 and is currently No. 88. He's still undergoing rehab for hip surgery last August.
