The victory over Lorenzi completes a truly unforgettable week for Estrella Burgos. He also saved three match points to defeat top seed Ivo Karlovic in a third-set tie-break in the second round. The Dominican Republican player improves to 15-0 in Quito. He's the only player in ATP World Tour history to win at least three titles in one event and none anywhere else. Estrella Burgos also defeated Feliciano Lopez in a third-set tie-break to prevail in 2015, and beat Thomaz Bellucci in a tight three-set match in the 2016 final.

"We're very happy with the win here, but we feel bad for our opponents. They were a little injured and that's not the way you'd like to win a match," said Cerretani. "The event here in Quito was world-class, though, and the people and the organisation were very friendly in every way." Read more (ATP)

It was an extra special week for Dimitrov, who was playing a first ATP World Tour event on home soil. His recent resurgence up the Emirates ATP Rankings, recovering from No. 40 in July 2016 to being on the cusp of the Top 10, has captivated the nation as fans flocked to support their countryman. "This is my most prestigious title for sure, winning it at home is a tremendous success for me," said the 25 year old, having secured the trophy with his mother watching on from court side.

The straight-sets victory lands the Serbians their maiden trophy together and a 54th tour-level doubles title for former doubles World No. 1 Zimonjic. The 40-year-old Zimonjic last clinched a trophy at the Swiss Indoors Basel in 2014 playing alongside Vasek Pospisil and was relieved to become a champion once again. "It's been a really long time. I had a couple of finals in 2015 but 2016 was a really tough year for me without a steady partner and some injuries. This is great to be back in a final of an ATP World Tour event, to play with your really good friend. It's an amazing feeling to do it in front of my wife, my kids, my long-time coach, physio, it's just huge to play here," said Zimonjic. Read more (ATP)
