Davydenko thumps local hope to enter third round

Second seed Nikolay Davydenko took just 71 minutes to polish off German opponent Philipp Petzschner 6-3, 6-2 and book his place in the third round of the International German Open.

The Russian former finalist will next meet last week's surprise Stuttgart winner Jeremy Chardy of France after the 15th seed survived two tight sets to defeat Andreas Beck 7-6 (7/2), 7-6 (8/6).

Soderling survives
Third seed Robin Soderling also advanced with a 6-3, 6-7 (3/7), 6-3 win over Italy's Fabio Fognini. The Swede will next play Nicolas Almagro in a repeat of last week's Bastad quarter-final.
