Fernando González won the title by default after Juan Mónaco was forced to withdraw from the tournament, after retiring during the doubles final, where he played alongside Máximo González, due to a left ankle injury. Gonzalez was announced as the champion after his semifinal win over Pablo Cuevas, in which he saved two match points.[1]
