Kremlin has an unseeded champ and Stockholm is won by top seed

Kremlin had a very surprising final today, with Igor Kunitsyn taking the title with a win over number seven seed and former world number one, Marat Safin. Kunitsyn hit seven aces and won 76 service points out of 110, while Safin hit 21 aces and won only 34 of 110 on return of serve.
The final score was 76(6) 67(4) 63.

But unlike Safin, Nalbandian had a win over Robin Soderling to win the title at Stockholm. It was a battle, but the top seed won with a score of 62 57 63. nalbandian hit 13 aces and saved two of four break point opportunities in this final.

In Vienna, Phillip Petzschner won the title to number eight seed Gael Monfils with a score of 64 64.
