> Singles – Second Round: (WC) Z Zhang def. (5) R Gasquet 6-4
> 3-6 6-4
> Yes, this really happened. We checked twice. Of course, just
> checking isn’t the same as having an explanation…. Richard
> Gasquet will probably rise from #14 to #13, but he had a
> chance for a lot more….
>
> Singles – Second Round: M Youzhny def. K Anderson 6-3 6-3
> Kevin Anderson loses quarterfinal points; he will fall from
> #36 to probably #37. Mikhail Youzhny needs one more win for
> the points to start counting.
>
> Singles – Second Round: S Querrey def. A Seppi 6-1 6-4
> This takes Sam Querrey to probably #22, two spots ahead of
> Andreas Seppi. Querrey didn’t make it to the Top Twenty in
> time for the U. S. Open, but it really looks as if he’ll end
> the year there.
>
> Singles – Second Round: F Lopez def. Y Lu 6-3 7-6(9-7)
> This will probably suffice to keep Feliciano Lopez in the
> Top Thirty, but we probably won’t know for certain for
> another day or two.
>
> Doubles – First Round: (Alt) Berlocq/Istomin def. (2)
> Mirnyi/Nestor 1-6 6-3 12-10 (Match TB)
> Max Mirnyi is trying to earn career doubles win #600. Think
> he was nervous?
>
> Doubles – Quarterfinal: (1) Bryan/Bryan def.
> Dolgopolov/Kubot 7-6(7-4) 6-2
> With Mirnyi/Nestor struggling, it looks as if the Bryans can
> cruise to the year-end #1.
>
> Doubles – Quarterfinal: Cilic/Matosevic def. Haas/Melzer 2-6
> 6-3 12-10 (Match TB)

> Singles – Second Round: (2) T Berdych def. A Falla 6-3 7-5
> Tomas Berdych continues to cruise, and moves a little closer
> to qualifying for London, but there still remains a slight
> chance that Jo-Wilfried Tsonga could catch him in the
> rankings.
>
> Singles – Second Round: (3) J Tipsarevic def. (Q) M
> Chiudinelli 6-4 6-2
> If Janko Tipsarevic can win his next match, he’ll start
> adding points, but he can’t climb this week.
>
> Singles – Second Round: M Baghdatis def. (4) J Monaco 7-5
> 1-6 6-3
> Juan Monaco probably ran out of gas after a long couple of
> weeks. At least he is safe at #10. Marcos Baghdatis should
> return to the Top Forty after this.
>
> Singles – Second Round: (6) M Raonic def. V Troicki 3-0,
> retired (Calf)
> 2012 continues to be disappointing for Viktor Troicki, who
> will not be returning to the Top Thirty at this time.
>
> Singles – Second Round: (8) K Nishikori def. (PR) T Robredo
> 5-7 6-1 6-0
> Kei Nishikori has started to add points, but he needs at
> least one more win to climb in the rankings.
>
> Singles – Second Round: (Q) D Tursunov def. (WC) T Ito 7-5
> 6-3
> We thought Dmitry Tursunov’s first round win might have been
> enough points to get him directly into the Australian Open.
> This seems almost sure to do it.
>
> Doubles – First Round: (1) Paes/Stepanek def. Knowle/Polasek
> 6-4 6-4
>
> Doubles – First Round: (4) Peya/Soares def. Paire/Wawrinka
> 7-5 6-2
>
> Doubles – First Round: Murray/Murray def. Butorac/Nieminen
> 5-7 6-3 10-4 (Match TB)
> Andy Murray really can do no wrong around here.
>
> Doubles – Quarterfinal: Bracciali/Cermak def.
> Monaco/Nishikori 6-1 7-6(7-2)
>
> Doubles – Quarterfinal: Berdych/Zimonjic def.
> Petzschner/Tipsarevic walkover (Tipsarevic Breathing
> Difficulties)
> It was pretty crazy for Janko Tipsarevic to try to play
