It’s Ivo no.6 in Delray Beach!
The Croat Giant played a great final against home favorite Donald Young. Karlovic dismissed the American 6-3 6-3 blasting 13 aces. Match Stats.
Probably the key of the match was Ivo’s (unusually) high break point conversion rate (3 of 3). Ivo: It’s incredible at my age
Karlovic is 35 and it seems that age doesn’t matter to him “It is unbelievable. It was really satisfying also for me to do this at my age, and it gives me a boost of confidence when I go into the other tournaments at Indian Wells and Miami. Last year, I was in four finals and I lost all of them, so I really wanted to do this one good. I was focused; I was doing my thing and it paid off.”
After this title Ivo will be ranked no.23. Karlovic will now head to Acapulco where he will face Gabashvili in the opener.
After this final, Donald will be ranked 45th from 56. He is probably getting there…
