Hassan Parsi


Rasswitt, Hylis Federation - Hassan Parsi won his second Hylis Open, after defeating Keszarian Részö Reményi in three sets (6-4, 7-5, 6-3).

It is the third Grand Slam win for the A'Sirian champion as, besides the 1580 Hylis Open, he also won the Florinthian Open in 1581. Harsi, 29, recovered his best play after a disappointing 1583 season, when he wasn't able to pass besides the first rounds of the four Grand Slam.

Részö Reményi had defeated the biggest hope for the local fans to the title, Vannevar Cregger -who had won the title in 1581-, but he was unable to break the pace of Harsi, who once agains showed an unbreakable service as his stronghest point.

The Hylis fan, however, were able to enjoy the second Hylis Open win for Elma Lundquist, who defeated Kyrzbekistani Leniza Ildukuz in three seats (7-5, 5-7 and 6-3). After this victory, Lundquist returns to the top 10 of the Women's Tennis Ranking, although still far from the top 3 women's players. Jandrea Katherine Snowdon continues to head the ranking one week more.
