[Brinyi]

Good start for Vampiro, who took out my man Lugassy 3 & 0.

Beto Martin also won easily over Chekhov, 4 & 1.

But another Spanish Has Been came up short, as Vicente was ousted by Marrero.

Stakhovsky is safely through, as is Ferreiro

Julio Silva lost lamely to .

Many more thrilling jousts to come.

[Brinyi]

Belucci safely through 4 & 4

Nice win for Scoville Jenkins over Moodie, oh wait this is clay!

Easy win for "British Vilas" Bogdanovic over a local bumpkin

[Brinyi]

Ivo Andersen and Kei Nishikori each won in 3

Brian Dabul lost to Lopez Jaen

[Brinyi]

Hernych def. Norman 6-4 7-5

Defending jr champ Ignatik decisively trumped Balleret

Harel lost as did C.Rochus

Sidorenko edged Crazy-Dani Koellerer 63 36 64

The Schwankster, surely , had enough to edge Rehnquist in 3.

Once Proud Ulihrach won, fellow Once Proud Whining Dupuis lost.

Brian Dabul lost to Lopez Jaen

Seriously. What's up with him?

Brian Dabul lost to Lopez Jaen

Seriously. What's up with him?

Dabul was a very good junior player but when I saw him I noticed he was quite short and didn't have much stick in his shots. He was totally blown away by Jo-Willy. I'm not surprised he's had difficulty establishing himself in the pros.

[Brinyi]

Looking forward to the Eduardo Schwank ARG (1) - Uladzimir Ignatik BLR tilt!

[Brinyi]

Vampiro lost 2 & 3 to Daniel "Trusted" Brands.

[Brinyi]

2R action

My main man Jan Hernych was routined by Schukin.
Scoville Jenkins beat Ivo Anderson in straights.
Nishikori got served a heaping bowl of Gruel.
Lisnard goes 10-8 in the third to subdue Sirianni.
Lopez Jaen takes out British Laver, 0-6 6-4 6-1.
Bobo Ulihrach is out to Crivoi.
Disppointed that young Sidorenko did not beat Decoud.

Schwankster - Ignatik upcoming.

[Brinyi]

Woohoo LatAm RNS brigade!

Eduardo Schwank (ARG)[1] bat Uladzimir Ignatik (BLR) 3-6 6-1 6-2

Thomaz Bellucci (BRA)[2] bat Ivo Klec (SVK) 7-6(6) 1-6 6-4

[Brinyi]

Here's a pleasantly surprising qualification:
Scoville Jenkins (USA) bat Ruben Ramirez Hidalgo (ESP)[21] 6-3 6-7(1) 9-7

[DBBN]

That...yes, "pleasantly surprising" is exactly the way I feel about it.

I kind of hope he's not going to turn into a D-Bag.

But RRH is pretty

[Brinyi]

Yes, the D-bag possibility looms for anyone who supports players they know virtually nothing about, as we do occasionally.

Diego Junqueira (ARG) bat Luis Horna (PER)[3] 6-3 6-4 -- Lucho has a good chance for a LL though.
