World no. 1 doubles pair Max Mirnyi and Daniel Nestor were handed an upset loss in the second round of the Western and Southern Open Tennis championship in Cincinnati as unseeded pair of Andreas Seppi and Victor Troicki unexpectedly defeated them 4-6,6-4,10-8.

Max Mirnyi was trying to win his 600th match at the ATP tour but he would have to wait till the next tournament as he stays on 599 right now. The Canadian-Belarusian pair had also lost in second round of this tournament last year.

On the other hand Bryan Brothers, who are already the most successful pair in the history of Tennis with 80 titles together, reached the Quarterfinals as they thrashed Stanislas Wawrinka of Switzerland and Jarkko Nieminen of Finland 6-0,6-1 in just 30 minutes.

Mike Bryan is also looking to go equal with Todd Woodbridge of Australia with 83 ATP Tour titles, as the player with most doubles titles to his name. His twin brother Bob has got 80 right now.
