Script:

Third-seed Tomas Berdych began his grass-court season with a comfortable 6-3, 6-2 win over Viktor Troicki at the Gerry Weber Open in Halle, Germany.

Berdych, who was a Wimbledon finalist two years ago, dominated on serve as he failed to give up a break point while winning 88% of the points behind his first serve.

Fifth seed Milos Raonic was also an easy winner, beating Chinese qualifier Ze Zhang 6-1, 6-1.

The Canadian could face defending champion Roger Federer in the next round with the Swiss to meet local hopeful Florian Mayer on Thursday.

"No, I did what I needed to do. I was very focused on myself. I just focused on my game, making him feel as uncomfortable as possible, making him adjust to me and doing what I do well and obviously my serve."

Fourth seed Alexandr Dolgopolov crashed out 6-4, 3-6 6-3 to Mikhail Youzhny, who admitted he rode his luck.

The Russian will next meet Radek Stepanek after the veteran Czech beat Cedric-Marcel Stebe of Germany 6-4, 6-4.
