Paris, France - Former runner-up Novak Djokovic and former champion Roger Federer were a pair of easy second-round winners Wednesday at the French Open. Garrett Bradbury Jersey . The second-seeded former world No. 1 Djokovic drilled Frenchman Jeremy Chardy 6-1, 6-4, 6-2 on Court Chatrier, while the fourth-seeded former top-ranked Swiss great Federer improved to 13-0 in second-round French Open matches by cruising past Argentine qualifier Diego Sebastian Schwartzman, making his Grand Slam debut, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 on Court Lenglen. The Serbian star Djokovic lost to eight-time champion Rafael Nadal in the French final two years ago and gave way to the mighty clay court king in an epic semifinal here last year. The 27-year-old six-time major titlist Djokovic still needs Roland Garros to complete a career Grand Slam. The 17-time Grand Slam king Federer titled here in 2009 and is a four-time French Open runner-up to Nadal. Up next for Djokovic will be Croat Marin Cilic, while Federer will encounter Russian Dmitry Tursunov on Friday. Sixth-seeded Czech slugger Tomas Berdych overcame Ukrainian Aleksandr Nedovyesov 6-7 (4-7), 6-4, 7-5, 6-3; eighth-seeded big-serving Canadian Milos Raonic rolled along by handling Czech Jiri Vesely 7-6 (7-4), 6-4, 6-1; 13th- seeded French favorite Jo-Wilfried Tsonga disposed of Austrian left-hander Jurgen Melzer 6-2, 6-3, 6-4; and an upset came when 35-year-old Czech Radek Stepanek doused 15th-seeded Russian veteran Mikhail Youzhny 6-0, 6-3, 3-6, 6-4. Other top-20 action saw 17th-seeded Spaniard Tommy Robredo paste Frenchman Kenny De Schepper 6-2, 6-3, 6-3, 18th-seeded Latvian Ernests Gulbis drop Argentine Facundo Bagnis 6-2, 7-5, 6-0 and Spaniard Marcel Granollers upend 20th-seeded Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov 1-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-0, 6-2. Gulbis already owns two titles in France this year, including one on clay just last week in Nice. Also on Day 4, a 25th-seeded Cilic got past German Tobias Kamke 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-0; 27th-seeded Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut dismissed Frances Benoit Paire 6-4, 7-6 (7-4), 6-2; 29th-seeded Frenchman Gilles Simon grounded Colombian Alejandro Gonzalez 6-4, 6-0, 6-2; a 31st-seeded Tursunov erased American Sam Querrey 6-4, 7-5, 6-1; and surging Slovak Martin Klizan edged out Dutchman Robin Haase 6-1, 3-6, 6-1, 1-6, 7-5. The first round concluded Wednesday when American Steve Johnson outlasted Frances Laurent Lokoli, 4-6, 6-7 (7-9), 7-6 (7-3), 6-3, 6-3, in a match that was suspended because of darkness on Tuesday.

ST. LOUIS -- The overflow crowd at Rams Park did not intimidate Michael Sam. He seemed almost eager for the attention and scrutiny. The first openly gay player drafted by an NFL team was confident and engaged Tuesday as he was formally introduced by the St. Louis Rams, handling questions and scrutiny with aplomb well beyond that of a typical seventh-round pick. "Im determined to be great," Sam said. "I understand that right now you guys want to make a big deal of it." Sam put his arm around coach Jeff Fisher after sharing the podium with other late-round picks. He joked that hed never before heard the term "tweener" and even rose in his chair in mock intimidation of fellow Missouri draftee E.J. Gaines, a sixth-rounder whod been asked what the SEC co-defensive player of the year was like as a teammate. Sam, who came out to teammates and coaches before his senior season at Missouri, disagreed that his sexuality had been a secret. "Apparently, everybody else makes a big deal out of it," Sam said. "But my teammates and my school didnt." "Its OK to be who you are," he added. "Whether youre gay, straight, black or white, its OK to be comfortable in your own skin." After getting the go-ahead from owner Stan Kroenke and making the pick Saturday, Fisher called it a "second historic moment" for a franchise that signed running back Kenny Washington in 1946 as the NFLs first black player in the modern era. Just as in his post-draft teleconference with St. Louis media that was sprinkled with salty language, Sam was feisty. Hes had a few months to get accustomed to the role of trailblazer instead of a silent star. Sure, hes a role model. Right now hed much rather be the Rams description of "designated pass rusher." "I will always support equality, period," Sam said. "But my job is to focus on football and help this team win a championship." The appearance of perhaps the most famous seventh-round pick in NFL history attracted a massive amount of people. A half-dozen TV trucks lined a crammed parking lot at Rams Park, an hour before the teams two first-round picks were due at the podium. About 80 media members attended the news conferences. Three days earlier when the Rams chose Sam with the No. 249 overall pick, the media contingent was in single digits. "Theres some energy here," general manager Les Snead said with a smile between rounds of interviews. "But I dont think this is a circus. This deserves attention, but well get it over and well get to work." Sam shared the dais with five other players taken in the sixth and seventh rounds Saturday as the draft came to a close. John Randle Jersey. Snead joked that Tennessee State centre Demetrius Rhaney, taken one pick after Sam at 250th overall, should get the first question after it got lost in the hubbub Saturday. "Im not sure anybody knows we drafted Demetrius," Snead said, adding that he hoped someday that pick 249 will someday be a footnote in sports history, and not such a big deal. For Sams subsequent solo session with reporters, he was flanked by Fisher and Snead, with Rams chief operating officer Kevin Demoff joining the group. Everyone seemed eager to embrace Sam. Second-round pick Lamarcus Joyner, a cornerback from Florida State, has never had an openly gay teammate. He applauded Sams decision. "Hes a courageous young man," Joyner said. "Hes a brave young man that we need in this organization." The teams two first-round picks were first to the podium. Offensive tackle Greg Robinson, chosen second overall, sported a bow tie. Both got their due. Both welcomed Sam to the family. Robinson and Sam did a TV commercial together for a credit card company. Aaron Donald met Sam at ceremonies for the Lombardi and Nagurski awards. "Hes a cool guy," Donald said. "Hes a football player, he works his butt off and thats what you want. You want playmakers around you and hes a playmaker. Third-round pick Tre Mason, a running back from Auburn, said Sam was a "man of his own and hes entitled to do that." "Were a team and hes also a family member to me now." Sam will put on the pads later in the week when the team holds a three-day rookie orientation, much, if not all of it, closed to the media. The Rams drafted Sam even though they didnt need help at defensive end, where they have a pair of first-round picks as starters. Robert Quinn was second in the NFL with 19 sacks last season and Chris Long has been a standout since getting chosen second overall in 2008. But the Rams were well-stocked with picks, finishing with 11 selections, putting them in unique position to make history. "Shortly before we got to our pick, Michaels value as a football player was off the charts," Fisher said. "He has an opportunity now to come in and compete to try to make our team." Sam realizes its up to him to make the most of this chance, and he bristles at the naysayers who contend hes in the NFL only because he came out. "Will I make the cut?" he said, repeating a question. "You want to find out in a couple months, huh?" ' ' '
