| Federer makes clay-season debut Tuesday in Rome |
On Monday, the Swiss superstar made his first appearance in doubles this year with countryman Yves Allegro as they reached the second round.

World No.2 and 2008 champion Novak Djokovic is up against Frenchman Jeremy Chardy on the following match. The Serbian, who lost to Nadal in the 2009 final, takes a 3-0 lifetime record in the contest and should go through easily to the next round. In the evening session, No. 4 seed Andy Murray looks to break a three-match losing streak as he takes on top Italian Andreas Seppi. The Scot is the logical favorite, he leads 3-1 all time, but he hasn’t played his best tennis lately and Seppi will have the rowdy Italian crowd’s support. A very interesting matchup will take place on Pietrangeli, as No. 9 seed Mikhail Youzhny from Russia faces former two-time ATP World Tour Champion Lleyton Hewitt. The Australian holds a 3-1 lead, but Youzhny is a dangerous player on any surface. On Monday, Colombian qualifier Santiago Giraldo brought a huge upset when he dismissed former World No.1 and Roland Garros champion Juan Carlos Ferrero 6-0,6-3 in just 59 minutes. The Spaniard is one of four players to win at least two titles this year, both on clay. Giraldo claimed one of the biggest wins of his career by defeating one of the best clay-court specialists. Wild card Simone Bolelli ensured that it was an historic for Italian tennis on Tuesday, when he defeated Simon Greul at the Internazionali BNL d’Italia. For the first time in 16 years, five Italian players – Paolo Lorenzi, Andreas Seppi, Potito Starace, Filippo Volandro and Bolelli – have reached the second round at the Foro Italico. Adriano Panatta was the last Italian to win the prestigious tournament in 1976 (d. Guillermo villas). I doubt that any of the Italian will match Panatta’s performance, but this is great for tennis in Italy. A fantastic tournament, with the World’s Top-4 in action. World No. 3 and defending champion Rafael Nadal looks like he’s back on track after his impressive win in Monte-Carlo. However, the Spaniard withdrew from the Barcelona Open in his country last week, declaring “my body needs some rest after the effort in Monaco”. We’ll see how tired the “King of Clay” is in Rome, or if he will tie Andre Agassi for a 17 ATP World Tour Masters 1000 record titles.
