Sweeting crushes Blake
Wednesday, 22 February 2012
Ryan Sweeting thumped James Blake in straight sets at the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships in Memphis on Tuesday.
Sweeting needed just 44 minutes to book his spot in the second round at the ATP 500 event, defeating Blake 6-0 6-2 in the all-American clash.
The winner converted six of his 10 break points in the win as he regularly took advantage of Blake's poor second serve.
Ukrainian Sergiy Stakhovsky joined Sweeting on the winners' list after he defeated American Robert Kendrick 6-3 7-6 (10-8).
Stakhovsky hit 10 aces in a dominant display on serve.
And American Sam Querrey defeated Columbian Alejandro Falla in the day's other match, coming from a set down to win 2-6 6-3 6-4.
