Top-seeded Kei Nishikori was ousted in the first round of the clay-court tournament by local favorite Thomaz Bellucci. ”It could be the worst match in the last few years,” said Nishikori, who shattered his racket in anger during the match. Last year’s champion and third-seeded Pablo Cuevas was also beaten in the first round.
