Marin Cilic

Top-ranked Roger Federer and three-time defending champion Rafael Nadal were a pair of second-round winners, while sixth-seeded Argentine David Nalbandian and seventh-seeded American James Blake were a pair of upset victims Thursday at the French Open.

Blake routines Cilic in a very solid performance. No double faults, he won over 70% of his first and second serve points, and saved all 3 bps he faced.

With all the epic 5 setters, various ethnic controversies, upsets, pepper spray, and Fed and Nadal, one substory may have been overlooked. That is the one of 19 year old Croat Marin Cilic.

Federer will ease into the fourth round and Gonzalez and Blake are heading for a tough meeting in the fourth round.
