Moya Muddles, Murray Migrates at ATP Miami

It was an all-unseeded opening day Wednesday at the ATP Masters Series-Miami, but winners included an Olympic gold medalist, a former No. 1, and a handful of "B"-squad Americans with a former Top 20-er on the comeback trail, fighting his way out of the qualifying and through the first round.

Carlos Moya (d. Hanescu from a set down) was the highest-profile winner among the unseeded, joined by stand-outs Nicolas Massu (d. Sluiter) and Americans (Q) Mardy Fish (d. (Q) Hernych), Alex Bogomolov (d. countryman (WC) Querrey from a set down), Paul Goldstein (d. (Q) Gimelstob who retired in the third set with injury), and qualifier Kevin Kim (d. Melzer from a set down).

Brit-Scot sensation Andy Murray's Miami experience was less than sensational, losing in three sets to Swiss Stan Wawrinka with a twisted ankle and dropping his win-loss to 3-4 since his first title earlier in the year at San Jose.

Highlights and lowlights of Thursday's unseeded play are train wreck (WC) Mark Philippoussis vs. Davide Sanguinetti, Marat Safin vs. Tim Henman, Carlos Berlocq vs. (WC) "The" Donald Young, and Aussie (Q) Peter Luczak vs. Arnaud Clement to see who faces world No. 1 Roger Federer.

"What can I say, there is not a nicer person then the Scud, but his big weapon (boom boom serve) and movement are just about dried up," writes Nick Bollettieri. "Philippoussis has had one injury after another, taking a huge toll on his big 6-foot-5-inch frame."

The Safin-Henman winner will face Lleyton Hewitt in the Aussie's opening-round match after receiving a bye.
