The second seed at the Bet-at-Home Open defeated qualifier Federico Delbonis 4-6 7-6 6-2, to win the tournament after saving three match points.

"It's an amazing week," said Fognini. "I can't believe it right now. I just feel incredible, a real good sensation. I'm very happy.

"I was, I think, a little bit lucky. I was nervous. Today, I didn't play really good, but I fought hard. I think that was the key. Another trophy, that’s the important thing. I want to enjoy [this] as soon as possible. I fly to Umag tomorrow and have another chance to play."

It was only one week ago when Fognini won the Mercedes Cup in Stuttgart. The Bet-at-Home Open champion receives 251,200 Euros in prize money and 500 ATP ranking points.
