history

For the first time since 2003 in Las Vegas, a World Cup tournament took place on the American continent. There were no big surprises in the first main round. The quarter-finals started with a sensation. The already established World Cup winner 2007 Torbjörn Blomdahl was defeated by the Korean Hwang Durk-hee. Hwang always failed in the first round of the World Cup until Mexico City. In the quarter-finals, Martin Horn lost after a 2-0 lead against the eventual winner Frédéric Caudron with 2-3 sets. The Korean Kim Kyung-roul confirmed his strong performance in this World Cup season with his win against world number two Daniel Sánchez . In the final, Dick Jaspers was not enough to win with a 2-1 lead.
