Some results:
R. Schuettler def. H. Levy 2-6, 7-5, 6-1
A. Di Pasquale def. L. Horna 6-2, 3-6, 6-3
G. Lapentti def. P. Srichaphan 7-6, 6-2 - do you want to ask what on earth's going on with Srichaphan, or shall I?

 

[TennisHack]

Congrats to DiP!

Hmm, it appears that Paradorn is finally feeling the effects of his amazing last half of the year. Good win for Giovanni, though

 

[Chloe le Bopper]

Has Srichiphan won a match since Australia? He started off the year nicely, with a title and quarters at Sydney, but has been a non entity since losing to Mark P at Oz.

 

[Chloe le Bopper]

I might add, that it's unfortunate, because these first few months of the year were a prime time for Paradorn to make a move into the top ten, but obviously he can't do that if he doesn't win any matches.
