Top seeds out in Gstaad
July 11, 2007 by miroslavbasaric
Top seeds Nikolay Davydenko and Mikhail Youzhny were sent crashing out of the Swiss Open in a rain-hit first round.
Frenchman Gael Monfils defeated the number one seed Davydenko 3-6 6-4 7-5 after resuming Tuesday’s rain-delayed match at 5-5 in the third.
Fellow Russian Youzhny lost to Austrian Stefan Koubek 6-4 6-3 in Gstaad.
The players in Gstaad are unlucky, as rain has interupted almost every match. Gael Monfils himself said that it was the coldest day he has ever played in.

Is Nikolay going to do well in the Australian Open, I don’t think so.
