Newz Forum: OTHER: TENNIS: Agassi stunned in U.S. Open tune-up

TORONTO (AP) - Andre Agassi was upset by Jurgen Melzer of Austria 6-3, 6-3 Thursday in the second round of the Tennis Masters Canada tournament, a blow for the eight-time Grand Slam champion's U.S. Open preparations.

Melzer, ranked No. 61, dominated the 10th-seeded Agassi from the start. Agassi has won this hard-court event three times.

Also Thursday, top-ranked Roger Federer topped Robin Soderling 7-5, 6-1 in his second-round match.

Federer was scheduled to play Max Mirnyi or Paradorn Srichaphan later. Tournament organizers hoped to squeeze in 16 second-round and eight third-round matches Thursday because of rain earlier in the week.

Defending champion Andy Roddick was to face Feliciano Lopez.

This is a shocking blow, he needs to turn this season around, dunno whats happened to the A-Train

Yeah he seems to have lost his way a bit, maybe he should have retired when je was thinking about it a little while ago. He must think he has more left in the tank and he should bounce back..

this is just a speed bump, hell recover in time for the Open. Maybe not winit, but he should have in impressive showing.
