"This is the second week in a row that I'm heading home without a loss, it does not happen so often," said the 31 year-old, who should rise four places to No.7 in the world rankings to be announced on Monday. "It's good for my confidence."

Last week Tsonga won his first title in two years, the ABN Amro World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam.
