Soonwoo Kwon captured his first ATP Tour title on Sunday when he overcame Australian James Duckworth 7-6(6), 6-3 in the Astana Open final.


Kwon became the second South Korean man to win a tour-level trophy in the Open Era, joining Hyung-Taik Lee, who triumphed in Sydney in 2003. The 23-year-old defeated three seeded players en route to the title.


“I am really happy to win my first ATP 250 title,” Kwon said. “I am just really, really happy to win today. It was a tough match today against James. He served really well and played very well and I tried to focus every single point.”
