Subject :Paris, France - Reigning champion Novak Djokovic, former titlist Roger Federer and Andy Murray were
Paris, France - Reigning champion Novak Djokovic, former titlist Roger Federer and Andy Murray were among Thursdays third-round winners at the $3. Sk8 Hi Vans .7 million Paris Masters. The two-time Paris Masters champ Djokovic got past French favorite and two- time tournament runner-up Gael Monfils 6-3, 7-6 (7-2) in the Day 4 nightcap. The Wimbledon champion Djokovic will face Murray in a quarterfinal showdown here on Friday. The Serb is 14-8 in their lifetime series, including 3-0 this year and 8-4 in Masters matchups. The second-seeded former world No. 1 Federer handled 20-year-old French qualifier Lucas Pouille 6-4, 6-4 on the indoor hardcourts at Paris Palais Omnisports. Federers quarterfinal opponent on Friday will be Canadian slugger Milos Raonic. The 33-year-old Federer is fresh off his title in his hometown of Basel, Switzerland, last week and was the Paris Masters champ in 2011. Hes currently riding a 14-match overall winning streak, including a title at the Shanghai Masters just three weeks ago. Meanwhile, the eighth-seeded former world No. 2 star Murray humbled ninth- seeded Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov 6-3, 6-3 in 69 minutes. I made it very difficult for Grigor, said Murray. I hardly made any mistakes at all throughout the match. The win cemented Murrays spot in the season-ending ATP World Tour Finals in London in two weeks. Murray is fresh off his title in Valencia, has won two straight and three of his last five tournaments overall, and riding an 11-match winning streak. A Day 4 upset came when 14th-seeded South African Kevin Anderson took out third-seeded Australian Open champ Stan Wawrinka 6-7 (2-7), 7-5, 7-6 (7-3). The 6-foot-8 Anderson will face 2005 Paris Masters titlist Tomas Berdych in the quarterfinals. Four other stars avoided upsets, as fourth-seeded David Ferrer drilled fellow Spaniard Fernando Verdasco 6-1, 6-2; a fifth-seeded Berdych handled 12th- seeded Spaniard Feliciano Lopez 7-5, 6-3; sixth-seeded U.S. Open runner-up Kei Nishikori held off 10th-seeded French favorite and former Paris Masters champion and former runner-up Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-1, 4-6, 6-4; and a seventh- seeded Raonic tackled 11th seed Roberto Bautista Agut of Spain 7-5, 7-6 (9-7). Ferrer titled here two years ago and was last years Paris Masters runner- up to Djokovic. The Spaniards quarterfinal opponent will be Nishikori. This marks the final tournament of the regular season on the ATP World Tour. Rihanna Puma Creepers Ireland .

Now it is a potential Super Bowl preview. Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning needs three touchdown passes to break Brett Favres league record of 508. Hes averaging three a game this season. Manning said he wants only to have more points than the 49ers do when its all over at Mile High Stadium. You can watch the game live on TSN and TSN GO at 8:15pm et/5:15 pt. Thats what Ive concentrated on, trying to do whatever it takes to win, he said. Manning added he wouldnt mind seeing Ronnie Hillman run for four touchdowns against San Francisco. That would be a shocker, though, because the Broncos have just two running touchdowns this season to go with Mannings 15 touchdown passes. The 49ers started 1-2, but have begun to play some impressive football, too. They understand the chore ahead in trying to stop Manning. Whenever he takes the field, hes just great all the time and that speaks volumes for the player that he is and continues to be, 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said. Just keeps doing it and doing it and doing it. Great. Great with a capital G at the highest level. Coming off the first tie in team history, the Carolina Panthers are showing a better passing offence than anticipated. Quarterback Cam Newton looks healthy and strong and has found a comfort zone with tight end Greg Olson and rookie wideout Kelvin Benjamin, who leads all NFL rookies wiith 416 yards receiving. Puma Suede Heart Black. The defence hasnt been as stout as expected, though, and that never bodes well when facing Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, which the Panthers are visiting for the first time since 2008. Rodgers has 10 touchdown passes without throwing an interception in Green Bays three-game winning streak. There could be long-term playoff ramifications when the Cincinnati Bengals meet the Colts in Indianapolis. It is the only game in Week 7 between teams that have sole possession of their division lead, giving the winner the inside track to potential playoff positioning. The Bengals are reeling and the Colts are rolling. Cincinnati comes off a blowout loss at New England and then a tie against Carolina. The Bengals have stuck by kicker Mike Nugent, who has been streaky this year and missed a 36-yard field goal at the end of overtime last week. Colts passer Andrew Luck leads the league with 1,987 yards passing and 17 touchdowns. T.Y. Hilton comes off a career game with 223 yards on nine catches. Theres also Kansas City at San Diego, the New York Giants at Dallas, Arizona at Oakland, Seattle at St. Louis, Atlanta at Baltimore, Miami at Chicago, New Orleans at Detroit, Cleveland at Jacksonville, Tennessee at Washington, and Minnesota at Buffalo. The action began on Thursday when New England beat the New York Jets 27-25. Tom Brady threw for three touchdowns in a sixth straight loss for New York after an opening win. On Monday, its Houston at Pittsburgh. Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' ' |
