Winston-Salem

 

Singles – Third Round: (1) J Tsonga def. (Q) S Stakhovsky 7-6(7-1) 6-4

More good practice for Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Still no points, though.

 

Singles – Third Round: (2/WC) T Berdych def. (16) J Nieminen 6-3 6-2

Jarkko Nieminen remains below #40. Tomas Berdych needs two more wins to earn any points.

 

Singles – Third Round: (4) A Dolgopolov def. (14/WC) D Nalbandian 6-3 6-4

This will let Alexandr Dolgopolov keep the #15 ranking. But David Nalbandian wil still be #45 or lower.

 

Singles – Third Round: S Darcis def. (5) A Roddick 7-6(8-6) 7-6(7-3)

Quite a streak for Steve Darcis — first he beat Denis Istomin, now this. Not many points for it, though. There aren’t many points for Andy Roddick, either, obviously; this will drop him from #21 to probably #22.

 

Singles – Third Round: (7) S Querrey def. (9) F Lopez 6-3 6-4

Feliciano Lopez loses his chance for a return to the Top Thirty.

 

Doubles – First Round: (1) Bopanna/Fyrstenberg def. Butorac/Hanley 6-4 6-7(4-7) 10-3 (Match TB)

Now that is an interesting alignment: Rohan Bopanna without Mahesh Bhupathi and Mariusz Fyrstenberg without Marcin Matkowski. The Poles will probably get back together. But the Indians may well be better off apart.

 

Doubles – First Round: Marrero/Sa def. (2) Marray/Nielsen 6-3 7-6(7-3)

The Wimbledon doubles is looking more and more flukey.

 

Doubles – Quarterfinal: S Gonzalez/Lipsky def. Knowle/Polasek 6-1 3-6 13-11 (Match TB)
