Querrey into second round at Cincinnati
Sam Querrey defeated Stefan Kozlov 6-3 6-0 to advance into the second round of the Cincinnati Open.
Querrey was barely tested by his 19-year-old wildcard opponent in the 51-minute match during which he dropped only four points on serve and did not even face one break point.
"Went out there and just kind of put my head down and went to work, and played a really solid match from start to finish. It felt good," said Querrey.

Fognini wins Swiss Open 2017 title
Fabio Fognini defeated Yannick Hanfmann 6-4, 7-5 to win the Swiss Open 2017 title, his fifth career title.
Forgnini was always in control, racing to a 4-0 lead in the first set and never allowing a break-point chance in the second.
"It's always a good feeling when you win," said Fognini. "Our job is winning matches and of course I'm happy with this. It was a really tough week for me. I remember my first match was really difficult. I couldn't play. I lost the first set 6-1 in 20 minutes, but in the end I won the match. I said to my team that if I continue playing like that, I'll go home. That's the sport. Every day I was feeling better and now I'm here with the title."
"Yes, for sure," Fognini said, when asked if the title is any sweeter as a new father. "This is the first title as a father, so it's something different and special."
The 31st-ranked Fognini is now 5-8 in finals on the ATP tour. He earned a prize of 86,000 euros ($101,000), and Hanfmann got a career-best 45,000-euro check ($53,000) for his full week's work.
"Fabio was the better man today, he deserves to win," said Hanfmann. "I had an amazing week here in Gstaad, the crowd was great. I come from college tennis and I'm used to great crowds, but the atmosphere here was unbelievable."

A few days ago Pennetta said, "Fabio sends me a thousand messages, cares, is afraid not to arrive in time for birth and would not hesitate to leave anything but not miss the appointment with this extraordinary event. I will give birth naturally. If all is well, I plan to take the epidural to enjoy the moment without being stunned by the pain. I hope that everything goes fine, I've been lucky so far, pregnancy has been wonderful aside from some normall discomfort between the second and the third month."
Congratulations!!
