Lajovic claims maiden title in Umag

UMAG: Fourth seed Dusan Lajovic of Serbia claimed his first career ATP title on Sunday with a 7-5, 7-5 win over Hungarian Attila Balazs.

Lajovic, the world number 36, had lost his only other previous final appearance to Fabio Fognini at the Monte Carlo Masters in April.

Balazs had come through qualifying to reach his first final, five years after he had originally retired from the sport to spend two years as a coach.
