Johansson, Massu Slide Out at Estoril

After the win Costa warned punters not to count on him to do any damage at the French Open, or for that matter to make another run at the Top 10.

"To think of returning to the Top 10 is stupid for me," said the 29 year-old Costa. "If I finish this season between 30 and 40, that will be a really good ranking for me. Of course, you can win a few big matches at a Grand Slam and anything is possible, but I'm not thinking Top 10 any more."

Garcia-Lopez said the key to taking down the towering Johansson was to put him on the merry-go-round.

"I tried to force him to move around the court," Garcia-Lopez said. "He's tall and he finds it hard when he has to run from side to side."

Winners on the seeded side were No. 2 Gaston Gaudio (d. Tabara, dropping only three games) and No. 8 Feliciano Lopez (d. Spanish countryman Montanes in three).

In the only all-unseeded match of the day, Costa Rican lucky loser Juan Antonio Marin caught another lucky break when opponent Agustin Calleri retired in the second set with a back injury.

On tap for Thursday in Estoril is the battle of former No. 1s and French Open champions in (1) Moya vs. Ferrero (JC leads the head-to-head 7-3, but Moya won the last meeting), Sanguinetti vs. Costa, (4) Robredo vs. Ventura in another all-Spanish, and (Q) Cakl vs. Mathieu.
