Sitak loses final

Kiwi doubles player Artem Sitak has been beaten in his second ATP doubles final in three weeks. Sitak and his Dutch partner, Wesley Koolhof, lost 6-4 6-2 to Argentine pair, Federico Delbonis and Maximo Gonzalez in the final of the ATP 250 tournament in Sao Paulo, Brazil in one hour and 12 minutes. It’s Sitak and Koolhof’s fourth loss in ATP finals since getting together after Wimbledon last year. They finished runnersup in New York two weeks ago and in Metz and Antwerp last year. However the 32-year-old Kiwi is expected to climb six places to 52 in the ATP rankings.
