Israel Open II
PTA Challenger Tour - Monday (1st Round) - Ramat HaSharon, Israel - Hard

Teenage star Marcuss Deane was too good for his lowly Canadian opponent Michel Paquette overnight Israel time with a 6-1, 6-3 victory. The heavily-bandaged West CWLander has apparently struggled with a thigh injury as of late, but showed no signs of weakness as he tore past the World No. 208 in breezy fashion. On one of the outer courts of the Israel Tennis Centre, Deane's powerful serve and aggressive volleying served him well as the defensive Paquette failed to create enough chances. Deane's win sets up a second round clash with 25-year old Croatian Stipo Vučemilović who who produced an upset of sorts with a 7-5, 7-6(6) win over the out-of-form seventh seed Ross Onwye.

There was no luck for Campsfield champion Roy Daniels as the World No. 144 was comprehensively beaten by Swedish fourth seed Henrikk Henrikkson. To Daniels' credit, he fought back from 0-4 down in the first set to lose it 3-6, but made too many errors and hit too few winners to oust the solid Swede who advanced to the second round 6-3, 6-3.

Seeded players out: Waylon Jones; Eric Henson; Ross Onwye.
