    David Ferrer advanced to the second round by virtue of his straight-set victory over Jarkko Nieminen Sunday afternoon. The 29-year-old Spaniard tallied 29 winners and five service breaks, en route to a 6-3, 6-3, 6-1 win in 85 minutes. Nieminen, who failed to earn a break point during the match, was held to just 9 points on the return.

    Ferrer will take on Julien Benneteau in the second round. The Frenchman rallied to defeat Rui Machado in round one, 4-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-0.

    He is slated to face either Thomas Schoorel or Maximo Gonzalez in the next round.
