Following
Andy Murrays winning return from Wimbledon, Rafael Nadal
was also eager to get back to winning ways after his shock
Wimbledon exit. Against Canadian Jesse Levine, Nadal seemed to
of banished Wimbledon from his memory with a easy 62 60 win over the
Canadian wild card. Up next for Nadal is Janowicz from Poland
who also beat another Canadian wildcard but it required much more
effort than Nadal did. The pole won 67 63 64. Milos Raonic also
enjoyed a good 64 64 win over Russia's Youzhny. The biggest
shock in the mens draw yet was a suprised defeat for third seed David
Ferrer who lost in straight sets to Russias Bogomolov Jr.
26 46. Meanwhile Tommy Haas had to pull out of his match while
trailing 05 to Aussie Marinko Matosevic due to a should injury.
Meanwhile
over in the women's tournament it was a winning return since
Wimbledon for both Sarena Williams and
Marion Bartoli. Williams eased to a 63 62 win over Schiavone.
Quoting BBC sport Williams said "I made a few errors, but
it's my first match on hard in a really long time".
Meanwhile Bartoli easily defeated qualifier Laura Davis 60 63. There
was also wins for Errani, Li Na, Kvitova and
Stosur. On the other hand it wasn't such a good day for Caroline
Wozniacki who was defeated in three close sets by Cirstea
from Romania. For former world number one lost 75 67 46. 11th seed
