IN BRIEF
PARIS - The unseeded Gaston Gaudio provided an apt ending to two wild weeks at the French Open by winning his first Grand Slam title, coming from way down to upset a cramping Guillermo Coria 0-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-1, 8-6 Sunday in a back-and-forth thriller.
In the women's final Saturday, Anastasia Myskina beat Elena Dementieva 6-1, 6-2 with solid play, steady resolve - and plenty of help from Dementieva's 33 unforced errors, including 10 double-faults.
Gaudio is the first man in 70 years to win a French Open final after facing match point, saving two when Coria served for the championship at 6-5 in the last set.
Gaudio had one more unforced error (55-54) and two fewer winners (36-38); each player was broken 11 times.
The sixth-seeded Myskina became the first Russian woman to win a major title. And she did so at a tournament where she had never been past the second round.
