Take a look at this.
1. Marcos Baghdatis becomes the first Cypriot to win an ATP title. OKAY.
2. Baghdatis added 34 INDESIT ATP Race points to his season's total to edge past American James Blake at No. 8 in the Race. OKAY
3. Baghdatis, who this year reached the Australian Open final and the Wimbledon semifinals, had not won an ATP event before today. OKAY
4. He finished last year at No. 73 in the INDESIT ATP Race with a modest 11-12 match record on the year. But Baghdatis boasts a 36-17 record in 2006. OKAY

But now take a look at this:
Of the 133 players who have ranked in the Top 10 (since 1973), Baghdatis is one of only three players to break into the Top 10 before winning his first career ATP title. The others are Cedric Pioline, ranked in Top 10 in Oct. 1993 before winning his first title in Mar. 1996; and Mikael Pernfors, who broke the Top 10 in Sept. 1986 before winning his first title in Sept. 1988.
