DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Feb. 26 (UPI) -- Third-seeded Sam Querrey advanced but No. 5 Alexandr Dolgopolov fell Monday in first-round action at the Delray Beach tennis event.

Querrey won the first set 6-2 and was tied 2-2 in the second when his opponent, fellow American Michael Russell, retired with an injury after just 44 minutes.
