Rudolf Molleker beat Pavel B. 6-2, 6-4 in Szczecin, converting three of three break points while never facing a break point he could not handle. He saved all three break chances he gave up and held every one of his seven service games.
Molleker broke in the fourth game of the opening set from 2-3 and again in the sixth at 2-5, reeling off five games in a row to take it 6-2. The second set stayed level until the seventh game, where he broke from 3-4 and served it out, with Pavel unable to take any of his three break points in that set.
The decisive number was 3/3 on break points for Molleker against 0/5 for Pavel. The Czech actually served bigger with five aces to two, and hit just one double fault to Molleker's four, but won only 8 of 22 second-serve points and 43 points in total to his opponent's 56.
