Nadal and Federer win confidently

Rafael Nadal came through his second round match against hometown pick Andreas Seppi with style as he finished him off in just 80 minutes. The Spaniard was broken in the first game of the match, but then quickly responded by winning 34 of 44 points on serve for the victory of 62 63.

Roger Federer also had his game on today as he defeated Ivo Karlovic. Federer broke Karlovic's serve twice while Karlovic fired 15 aces, but that was enough to seal a comfortable win of 64 64.

A shock exit was made by Andy Murray as he lost to Juan Monaco with a score of 16 63 75, and other seeds who join him are Nikolay Davydenko, David Ferrer and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.

Djokovic wins; Robredo overcomes Safin

Novak Djokovic had a little trouble in the first set against Spanish Albert Montanes but managed to close it out at 7-5 in the tie-breaker. The second set was complete demolition... for Montanes as Djokovic gave no chances to take the second set 60.

Tommy Robredo got through a thriller today as he denied Marat Safin a win. Safin was up 62 41 30-Love, and then suddenly bounced back to turn it around with a victory. The final score was 26 76(5) 62 and gets Robredo to the second round.

Other winners include Fernando Gonzalez, Mardy Fish and Ernests Gulbis. Sam Querrey didn't have such a good time as he went out in the first round.
