Ginepri out, Federer into 3rd round

Robby Ginepri just fell in four sets to No. 30 Marin Cilic. It looked as though he would force a fifth set while serving for the fourth set, up 5-3. He fell down love-40 before forcing deuce, but Cilic won the game to get back on serve. He then held, broke Ginepri again and held for the win: 6-4, 2-6, 6-2, 7-5.

No. 28 Srebotnik took the first set against No. 3 Kuznetsova, 6-3, and the two were on serve in the second set moments ago.

Federer took the third and final set, 6-4, to advance to the third round:6-3, 7-5, 6-4. He won 80 percent of his points on first serves and recorded 19 aces to Alves' two. He was tested in the one-hour and 13-minute second set, but broke twice in the third to move on.
