Blake Defeates Davydenko In Three & Loses to Montanes in Final; Butorac/Lipsky take Doubles Title

James Blake came from behind against Davydenko finishing their semifinal match today after it was called on account of darkness yesterday.  Blake reached the clay court final with his impressive victory over Davydenko 6-7(3), 7-6(2), 6-3, but then had to play the final later in the day.

Blake nearly pulled off the championship, but lost in the final to Montanes 7-5, 6-7(6), 6-0.  Unlucky to have to play both match same day while Montanes was fully rested.  While Blake won 7 of 9 second serve points in the first set, his third set 2nd serve percentage dropped to 24%.
