BANGKOK, Thailand -- Bernard Tomic of Australia ousted ailing 2010 champion Guillermo Garcia-Lopez of Spain 6-0, 6-2 in the first round of the Thailand Open on Tuesday. The 19-year-old Tomic, based in Monte Carlo, dominated the Spaniard, whose movement was hampered by a left foot injury. After the first set he sought courtside treatment for his right foot. "It was not easy," Tomic said. "He is a good player and won this tournament before. But Im playing really well. Im happy that I arrived here early and trained under the heat to get ready. I have to keep my head up." Former finalists Viktor Troicki of Serbia and Jarkko Nieminen of Finland also won. Troicki, runner-up in 2009, beat Sergiy Stakhovsky of Ukraine 6-7 (4), 7-5, 6-3, letting slip being up by a break in each set. He was also breaking in new rackets he received 10 days ago. Nieminen, the finalist two years ago, advanced while leading 6-1 against Japanese qualifier Yuichi Sugita, who retired with an ankle injury. The fifth-seeded Fernando Verdasco of Spain beat Tatsuma Ito of Japan 3-6, 6-0, 6-2, taking a while on the indoor hard-courts to gauge his first-time opponent. "Its always difficult to play someone you have never seen before," Verdasco said. "I was surprised. In the end I was physically better." Japanese qualifier Hiroki Moriya earned his first win on the tour this year when he beat Robin Haase of the Netherlands 2-6, 7-6 (6), 6-3, and Dudi Sela of Israel downed Marco Chiudinelli of Switzerland 6-4, 6-4.

Cheap Jerseys China . PAUL, Minn. CLEVELAND -- Chip Kelly wouldnt jump. So the Browns bailed. Oregons visor-wearing coach isnt coming to Cleveland -- or the NFL. A person familiar with Clevelands coaching search said the team passed on Kelly after he was indecisive about making the leap to the pros. The Browns nearly had a deal with Kelly two days ago, but theyve moved on to other candidates, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Sunday because of the sensitivity of the search. The Browns questioned whether Kelly "was committed to coming to the NFL," said the person. And because of his hesitation, Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and CEO Joe Banner returned from Arizona to Cleveland to continue looking for the clubs sixth fulltime coach since 1999. As it turns out, Kelly is staying at Oregon, a person with direct knowledge of his choice told the AP late Sunday night. Kellys decision was first reported by ESPN. Following Thursday nights Fiesta Bowl win over Kansas State, Kelly said he hoped to have the interview process "wrapped up quickly." He spent two days interviewing with Cleveland, Buffalo and Philadelphia before deciding to remain at Oregon. Its the second straight year Kelly has entertained overtures from NFL teams only to reject them. He turned down Tampa Bays job deep into negotiations last season. Kelly will go back to Oregon, where he has built the fast-flying Ducks into a national powerhouse. Oregon is 46-7 the past four seasons with four BCS bowl games under the offensive innovator. With Kelly no longer in play, the Browns will consider some of the candidates theyve already met with or maybe begin a second wave of interviews. Haslam and Banner spent most of last week in Arizona and are known to have spoken to former Arizona coach Ken Whisenhunt, Cardinals defensive co-ordinator Ray Horton, Syracuses Doug Marrone and Penn States Bill OBrien. Marrone accepted Buffalos coaching job Sunday, three people familiar with the negotiations told The AP. OBrien decided to stay with the Nittany Lions. The Browns arent confirming any of their interviews or commenting on any candidates. Haslam could still make a run at Alabama coach Nick Saban following Monday nights BCS title game. Saban has not given any indication he wants to take another stab at coaching in the NFL, but its possible the 61-year-old could be persuaded by Haslam with the promise of power and a monstrous contract. A former NFL player, Whisenhunt, who went 45-51 in six seasons and led the Cardinals to a Super Bowl, spent one year as a special teams co-ordinator with Cleveland. The 50-year-old coach served as Pittsburghs offensive co-orrdinator from 2004-06, and that connection could serve him well with Haslam, who had a minority share in the Steelers before he bought the Browns.dddddddddddd Horton spent seven seasons on Pittsburghs staff before joining the Cardinals in 2011. Haslam and Banner fired Pat Shurmur last week, one day after the Browns finished a 5-11 season with a loss in Pittsburgh. Shurmur went 9-23 in two seasons for the Browns, who have lost at least 11 games in each of the past five seasons and have changed coaches four times since 2002. Before embarking with Banner on the coaching search, Haslam said there was no set time frame on finding a coach. He promised to wait as long as necessary to "bring the right person to Cleveland." "Our goal is to get the best person and if we happen to find that person within a week, thats great and if it takes a month, thats great also," Haslam said. Haslam and Banner are focused on hiring a coach first before turning their attention to a personnel executive. Tom Heckert, who overhauled Clevelands roster in the past three years, also was fired last week. Its not known if the Browns have interviewed any GM candidates. Clevelands courtship of Kelly turned into a two-day fling with no shortage of drama. After Kelly met with the Browns for seven hours Friday, it appeared he was headed to Cleveland. The Philadelphia Eagles left Arizona after they were informed a deal between the Browns and Kelly was imminent. Kelly, though, kept his commitment for an interview with the Eagles and reportedly spent nine hours with him on Saturday, preventing the Browns from a second meeting Kelly also met Friday with the Bills, but that was nothing more than a cursory interview for both sides. The pursuit of Kelly created an interesting subplot between the Browns and Eagles. Banner spent 19 seasons in Philadelphia before leaving the team last year amid a power struggle. Banner is longtime friends with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, and the two of them potentially squaring off in a bidding war for Kelly was straight out of a screenplay. Its not known what kind of offer the Browns made for Kelly, who earned a base salary of $2.8 million last season at Oregon and has five years left on his contract. Kellys high-octane, hurry-up offence has raised his profile and made the Ducks, with their splashy array of colorful Nike uniforms, more than a curiosity. Several NFL teams, including New England and Washington, are using elements of Kellys schemes. The Browns were intrigued enough to see if they could work something out with Kelly. But in the end, they detected he wasnt ready. They were right. ' ' '
