Thomaz Belluci wins first title

Brazilian Thomaz Belluci has claimed his first ever title defeating first time finalist Andreas Beck in the Gstaad final on the 2nd on August. Belluci was a wildcard into the draw and went on to claim the title 6-4 7-6(2). He was asked after the match how it feels to capture his first world tour title as a qualifier, and heres what he has to say, "For sure it was the best week of my career. I played unbelievably in three or four matches, I won against Wawrinka, Andreev and today I beat Beck. So, for me, it was an incredible week. I played the qualifying, then in the first round I was two match points down, so I was very lucky but I’m very happy.”
