Baghdatis je porazio Ljubičića tri puta u svojoj karijeri. "Pred finale nisam znao šta da očekujem, pošto kad god gledam Ljubičića, on izgleda prilično težak za pobijediti," rekao je Baghdatis novinarima nakon dvoiposatnog meča.
Baghdatis has beaten Ljubicic three times in his career."Ahead of the final I did not know what to expect, since whenever I watch Ljubicic he seems rather difficult to beat," Baghdatis told journalists after the two-and-a-half-hour match.
