Djokovic ousted

Top-seeded Novak Djokovic was upset by 13th-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-2, 6-2 in the third round of the Rogers Cup in Toronto yesterday. Djokovic came in with 11 straight wins over Tsonga but was nowhere near adding a 12th. Tsonga's serve gave Djokovic lots of trouble. The Frenchman had only eight aces, but Djokovic continually struggled to keep his returns in play.
