01/31/2012 - Zagreb, Croatia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two of this week's top-three seeds, Russians Alex Bogomolov Jr. and Mikhail Youzhny, were among Tuesday's opening- round winners at the Zagreb Indoors tennis event.

The second-seeded Bogomolov drilled Croatian wild card Dino Marcan 6-3, 6-1, while the third-seeded Youzhny got past Ukrainian Sergiy Stakhovsky 6-4, 7-6 (7-4) on the indoor hardcourts at Dom Sportova. Stakhovsky was the champion here back in 2008.

Towering eighth-seeded Croatian favorite Ivo Karlovic advanced with a 7-6 (7-2), 6-3 decision against Slovenian Blaz Kavcic on Day 2.

Additional first-round wins came for German Michael Berrer, Austrian qualifier Jurgen Melzer and Poland's Lukasz Kubot. The 2011 Zagreb runner-up Berrer will face top-seeded former top-five star and 2006 Zagreb champion Ivan Ljubicic in the round of 16. Berrer, who beat Swiss qualifier Marco Chiudinelli 7-6 (7-3), 6-1 on Tuesday, lost to Croat Ivan Dodig in last year's finale here.

This week's titlist will collect $90,000.
