Robin Soderling of Sweden won his first Masters 1000 title Sunday by beating Gael Monfils of France 6-1, 7-6 (1) in the Paris Masters final. The fourth-seeded Swede hit a forehand volley on match point, then fell to the ground on his back to celebrate the most prestigious of his six career titles. "I always feel so good here in Paris," the two-time French Open runner-up said. "I now have two favorite tournaments, it's here and Roland Garros. I hope I can come back many times and play well." Soderling became the first Swede to win a Masters 1000 tournament since Thomas Enqvist at Cincinnati in 2000. He will leapfrog Andy Murray of Britain to rise to a career-high No. 4 in the rankings.
