Rotterdam: Singles, First Round

Wes Welker's hopes of a third consecutive title this season were ended today by Bruce Force. Force beat the world number one in straight sets, the first time Welker has actually been beaten in singles. The Englishman pulled out an impressive serving game by his standards, going at just over 70% on the first serve. Welker wasn't error prone as usual, but surprisingly he just couldn't reach many of Force's strokes resulting in many winners for the deserved victor. Truman Lee has continued his extraordinary run by taking out fourth seed Rob Cribb. Despite coming through in two sets, it was a very competitive affair, with Lee only taking a couple more points during the course of the match. Cribb was rather unlucky to win actually, with the game mostly being decided on Cribb's difficulty to deal with the serve of Lee when it really mattered. Second seed Ivan Ryabovol was challenged by Oscar Wood, but recovered from getting smashed in the second set to take the match, a feat that seems even better when you see that he was a break down in that final set.
