Swede Michael Ryderstedt caused an upset after beating Argentinian Maximo Gonzalez in three sets 6-4 2-6 6-2.
Gonzalez is ranked 221 places higher than Ryderstedt. The Swede who played in Davis Cup against Serbia on the weekend believes the Davis Cup environment has helped him to improve as a player.
“It means a lot to me to have Thomas Enqvist and Magnus Larsson as coaches. I normally play better when I have help from a coach,” Michael said.
Ryderstedt’s opponent in the second round is the winner of Andrey Golubev seeded No. 7 and Ruben Ramirez Hildago.
Veteran Swedish wildcard player Andreas Vinciguerra lost in three sets to French qualifier Jonathan Dasnieres De Veigy 6-1 1-6 6-3.
“I was a bit nervous at the start of the match. I played ok in the second and third set. I haven’t played enough matches,” Vinciguerra said.
Italy’s Potito Starace beat Julian Reister of Germany 7-6 (6) 6-3. Argentinian qualifier Diego Junqueira beat Igor Andreev of Russia in three sets 7-6 3-6 6-4. Junqueira will face Swede Robin Soderling in the second round.
