Marsel in the Final!

Marsel beats Gensse 1-6/6-3/6-1 in the Scheveningen challenger semi final and makes the final. His opponent will be Dusan Lojda or Steve Darcis.

Marsel started bad and made unforced errors in the first set. In the second and third set he was very comfortable though. He even was up 5-0 in the second set but choked a little bit. He went early break up in the third set too and got easy win after losing the first set. He played really well in the last two sets but Gensse helped to him with cheap errors.

If Marsel wins tomorrow in the final, he will likely make the US Open main draw. Very important match for him, good luck to Marsel!
