Swiss Indoors Basel 2015: Tuesday Tennis Scores, Results, Updated Draw Schedule

Published by Bleacher Report on Tue, 27 Oct 2015


Top seed Roger Federer eased pastMikhail Kukushkin in front of his home crowd in the first round of the 2015Swiss Indoors in Basel on Tuesday.The Swiss legend put on quite a show for his adoring supporters as he rushed into a one-set lead before sealing the match in a slightly tougher second.Belgium's eighth-seeded David Goffin was made to work hard in his first-round match against Italian Andreas Seppi, but he eventually came through in three sets.Here's a look at the day's results from Switzerland and a review of the best action.RecapAn opening ace from Federer set the tone for much of the first set as he blitzed hisKazakh opponent in his city of birth.A six-time winner in Basel, the world No. 3 broke twice to race into a 5-0 lead, with Kukushkin barely getting a look, even on his own serve.The world No. 64 finally got a game on the board for 5-1 as he held to love, but Federer served out the opener in brutal fashion, per Tennis TV:Kukushkinput up more of a fight at the start of the second set as the pair exchanged service holds for 2-2.However, while Federer rushed through his own service games with ridiculous ease, Kukushkin was forced into multiple deuces to simply stay in touch.The underdog eventually crumbled as Federer went 4-2 up after consolidating his first break of the second set.His now-trademark sneak attack earned him the double break for 5-2, and yet more perfect serving saw him seal a two-set thrashing in under 55 minutes.Full results and updated schedule for the men's draw are available via theATP website.
