Younes El Aynaoui reached his 5th Finale of the year on an ATP
tournament wail other Moroccan Tennis Starts still waiting for there
first one this year.
El Aynaoui lost a clause Match to Carlos Moya 3-6 6-2 and 5-7.
This means that the match was decided in the last 2 games with Moya
breaking El Aynaoui to sign victory in the Swedish Open and his 2/0
victories against Younes.
I think that 3 Spanish players in a raw were just too much for
Younes. He defeated his double partner Albert Portas in the quarters
in 3 sets signing his 6th wins 6 matches with Portas, in the semis
Younes played and superb Match against Tommy Robreado revenging his
defeat of last year semis in Casablanca on this only meeting. Younes
played there one of his best matches with 6-2 6-2 making only 7
unforced errors and loosing just 9 points on his serve.
In the finale Younes was not far from his 4th tournament of the year
to equal the score of Hewitt but was that maybe too much for him.
Good luck for Younes in the next tournament in Stuttgart beginning
Tomorrow, the same thing for Hicham Arazi also Playing Stuttgart,
hope the win of Younes will stimulate him to do better and the same
for all other Moroccan players in other tournaments.

Salaam,
Ali Yahia.
