Tennis:Stan Wawrinka has eliminated Bernard Tomic from the Paris Masters


Stan Wawrinka is into the third round of the Paris Masters after beating Bernard Tomic on Tuesday.

The world No 4 registered a 6-3 7-6 victory in his first ATP Tour match against his young Australian opponent.

Wawrinka got off to the perfect start with a break in the first game which he turned into a 3-0 lead. One further break handed him a straightforward win in the first set.

Tomic admirably fought back but couldn't convert two set points with Wawrinka on serve. The Swiss player eventually forced a tie-break.

Wawrinka then overcame a 5-2 deficit in the second set tie-break, winning six of the last seven points, to book a third round slot against Viktor Troicki or Feliciano Lopez.
