| | Roddick serves up a rout / Frenchman foiled in just 50 minutes |
 | | Defending champion Andy Roddick gave Cyril Saulnier a lesson in Tennis 1A as he thrashed the Frenchman 6-0, 6-4 in the finals of the SAP Open in San Jose on Sunday, a match that took only 50 minutes. |
 | | Though Saulnier was unseeded in the tournament, he had played well all week, beating No. 4-seed Vincent Spadea, No. 5 Jiri Novak and No. 7 Jurgen Melzer, losing only one set in the process. |
 | | Playing in his 79th tournament, Saulnier made his first finals and seemed to be saying to himself, "What am I doing here?" Soon, spectators were asking the same question, as the first set was finished in 20 minutes. |
