More seeds fell in the second round of the 2012 Australian Open. Not only did the US lose their highest ranking seed, Mardy Fish, but perhaps the most famous American male tennis player still active, Andy Roddick, had to retire in the third set of the second round. I won’t list all the seeds that dropped but here are a few men who won’t be gracing ESPN 2 in later rounds of the tournament.
Mardy Fish from USA – Ranked 8
Nicolas Almagro from Spain – Ranked 10
Andy Roddick from USA – Ranked 15
Alex Bogomolov from Russia – Ranked 32

…Nico won his match against Wawrinka, and is in R4. So unless there’s blatant discrimination, no reason why he won’t be gracing ESPN2. 😉
