Leo Borg started the match very aggresive against the former Båstad finalist Coria and the crowd was with him from the first point. Both players started a little nervously by breaking each other in the first 2 service games. At 4-5 and 30 nil in the serve, it looked bright for Borg, but then the Argentine lined up 4 points and clenched his fist winning the set 6-4.
