Roeselare, Jesus-Graça surprise: title to Portuguese pair

Diogo Jesus and Pedro Graça were not among the seeded players at the FIP Rise in Roeselare (Belgium), but they managed to overturn the predictions with a great tournament, which ended with a victory in the final in three sets (7-6 3-6 6-2) over Frenchmen Jerome Inzerillo and Adrien Maigret. “The last international tournament of the year was perfect – the winners said –. We knew it would not be easy, but we fought hard and believed in it until the end. We know that this is the way to go, but we want more and we will attack this circuit with all our might next year too”.
