Henman claims Swiss indoors

ASSOCIATED PRESS

BASEL, October 12: Tim Henman finished off the best week of his career with the match of his life in the final of the Swiss Indoors Championship, which left Andre Agassi wanting to kill himself.

Henman, the Enlish gentleman with the schoolboy good looks, showed a ruthless killer instinct, dumping the American former world number one 6-4, 6-3, 3-6, 6-4 to claim his second title in as many weeks.

Despite having climbed from 144 in the world rankings to his current number eight in less than a year, Agassi has been frustrated by his inability to finish off tournaments.
