Top seed Tomas Berdych battled to a 5-7 6-4 6-4 victory over Grigor Dimitrov to win the final of the Stockholm Open on Sunday and boost his hopes of reaching the ATP Tour Finals in London.
Berdych consolidated seventh place in the ATP rankings ahead of Great Britain's Andy Murray, who had earlier won the final of the Erste Open in Vienna.
Bulgarian Dimitrov, the defending champion, rallied from 5-4 down to claim the first set, but Berdych recovered to level the contest before going on to close out victory in two hours and 20 minutes, claming his 10th ATP tour title.
While the Czech now looks well placed to qualify for the Tour Finals for the fifth consecutive year, Dimitrov faces a battle to reach London, placed in 11th with the rankings tightly packed between the players above him going into the final two regular-season events.
