16-time Grand Slam title winner Roger Federer took on Spaniard Feliciano Lopez.

Federer had won their previous eight meetings. And the third seed was cruising in this contest taking the first two sets.

The Spaniard was a little more competitive in the third, forcing a tie breaker but that just prolonged the inevitable as Federer rolls in to the next round in straight sets. He'll meet local Stephane Robert who edged out the sixth seed Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic.

Also on day two, Bjorn Phau from Germany lost to Frenchman Gael Monfils. Richard Gasquet beat Radek Stepanek in straight sets. Former US Open champion Juan Martin Del Potro won his match in four sets. Marcos Baghdatis defeated Frederico Gil, and Denis Gremelmayr lost to Nikolay Davydenko.
