Sixth-seeded Andy Roddick was ousted from the Pacific Life Open on Sunday, losing 6-4, 6-4 to unseeded Tommy Haas.
Roddick's famously fast serve failed him in the match, as he hit just 54% on his first serves and was broken twice.
Seventh seed David Nalbandian needed three sets but reached the third round by beating Ernestes Gulbis 6-4, 4-7, 7-6 (4).
No. 12 Fernando Gonzalez was not so fortunate, losing in three sets to Mario Ancic. No. 25 Nicolas Almagro was also upset by Nicolas Mahut.
Also on the men's side, 11th seed Andy Murray lost a set before rallying to beat Jurgen Melzer 3-6, 6-3, 6-3. No. 15 Tommy Robredo, No. 20 Ivo Karlovic, and No. 29 Radek Stepanek also advanced.
On the women's side, fourth-seeded Maria Sharapova continued her tear in 2008, reaching the fourth round with a straight sets win over Eleni Daniilidou. She will face No. 15 Alona Bondarenko, who knocked out 17th seed Amelie Mauresmo.
No. 2 Svetlana Kuznetsova also reached the fourth round, as did No. 10 Agnieszka Radwanska and unseeded Caroline Wozniacki.
