In a night match, Spain's Tommy Robredo, the sixth seed, bounced back from a first-set loss to take down American Taylor Dent 5-7, 6-4, 6-4.

Mild upsets came when Russian qualifier Teimuraz Gabashvili advanced past 11th-seeded Xavier Malisse when the Belgian retired trailing 4-2 in the first set. Also, Russian Evgeny Korolev clipped 13th-seeded German Michael Berrer 6-4, 7-5.
