Stanislas Wawrinka sees off Viktor Troicki at Shanghai Masters

Stanislas Wawrinka beats Viktor Troicki in straight sets to book his place in the third round of the Shanghai Masters.

Stanislas Wawrinka has moved into the third round of the Shanghai Masters following a 7-6 6-3 victory over Serbia's Viktor Troicki.

The Swiss player made a slow start to proceedings, allowing Troicki to break in the early stages of the first set. However, he recovered to secure a break of his own and level the scores. The set remained level and entered a tie-break, which Wawrinka claimed 7-3.

Wawrinka began the second set stronger, racing into a 3-0 lead after errors from Troicki allowed him to break in the second game.

The world number four maintained his three-game advantage and almost broke again at 5-2 up to secure victory, although Troicki saved two match points before winning the game.

Wawrinka, though, was not to be denied and he wrapped up the match in his next game.
