In the shock of the round no 5 seed Rafa Nadal from Spain
was beaten by 3 sets to 2 by fellow Spaniard Fernando Verdasco won the first set in a
thriller as it went to a tie break and as the second and third went to Nadal we
thought this was over but Verdasco came back to win the fourth and cruise into
the second with a double break in the fifth.
No 16 seed Aussie Bernard Tomic needed 4 sets to beat Istomin
but the set the Uzbekistani did win was a hard one to win as it went to a tie
break and maybe that drained him.
Brit no 2 seed Andy Murray did not need to get out of third gear
to beat Zerev from Germany winning 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 and maybe the only consolation
the German can have is that he did get better through the match. I want Murray
to win the Aussie open so he can be one title of a grand slam of grand slams
Canadian no 13 seed Milos Ranoc found it easy also against Pouille
from France winning 6-1, 6-4,6-4 will he be one to watch out for going forward
in the competition.
American no 10 seed John Isner found a way to simplify
things against Pole Janowicz as the first and third were simple but the second he
found trickier to get into
One of the men I would like to see do well in the competition
no 8 seed David Ferrer from Spain cruised into the second round win by only
needing 3 sets to beat Gojowczyk from Germany
Fernando Lopez from Spain and number 30 seed only needed 3
sets to defeat Dan Evens from Great Britain there does not seem to be that much
depth in British tennis.
