Nam finishes comes close at Hải Đăng Cup
HÀ NỘI — Lý Hoàng Nam finished runner-up at the ITF World Tour M 二 五 I Hải Đăng Cup 二0 一 九 yesterday in Tây Ninh Province.
The national No 一 lost 六- 三, 七- 五 to American Daniel Nguyen in the final, which was delayed from Sunday due to heavy rain.
The players were just three games into the first set when the organisers decided to postpone the match until the following day, and Nam subsequently lost in two hours.
It's the second time Nam has lost to Nguyen. In their previous meeting in the semi-finals of the VTF Masters 五00 in March, Nam was beaten 一- 六, 六- 三, 六- 七 ( 二).
Players will continue with the World Tour M 二 五 II from October 七- 一 三 at the Hải Đăng Sport Complex. — VNS
