Roddick v Fish Tuesday at ATP Memphis


Posted on February 21, 2006

Chilean qualifier Paul Capdeville continued Tommy Robredo's difficult February on Monday at the ATP stop in Memphis, ousting the No. 3-seeded Spaniard 4-6, 7-6(3), 6-4 to move into the second round.

Robredo was also ousted as a seed in the first round last week at San Jose by wildcard Mark Philippoussis.

"It is my best win because Robredo is ranked 14," Capdeville said. "Last year at the US Open I beat Mathieu, but this is different."

Other winners Monday were No. 8 seed Xavier Malisse (d. Phau), Frenchman Cyril Saulnier (d. (LL) Garcia-Lopez), and Dane Kenneth Carlsen (d. Luczak).

Scheduled for Tuesday are Blake vs. Vliegen, Ginepri vs. Tursunov, Roddick vs. Fish in an all-American, Mirnyi vs. Soderling, Karlovic vs. Pless, Benneteau vs. Wang, and Arthurs vs. Zib.
