Losing to 20 year old Jack Sock, ranked outside the top 150 and a huge underdog, Raonic has made a 1st rnd exit from the Memphis ATP 500 Indoor Hard-Court tourney. The score was 3-6, 7-5, 5-7. The other important stat was this:<\/p>\n
Break Points Converted:
\nJack Sock : 2\/3
\nMilos Raonic : 1\/9<\/p>\n
Not a good day for #TeamMilos. Unfortunately, other than the numbers, we can't say much since the 1st rnd wasn't covered anywhere: audio, video, TV, internet, nothing.<\/p>\n

Milos is into Memphis this week, directly following his 3-years-in-a-row title win at San Jose. Raonic is 2nd seed in Memphis, edged out by Marin Cilic for that top starting spot. Even though he's 2nd seed, the conditions (indoor hard court) probably make him the favourite to win this thing. Raonic lost to Andy Roddick and JoJo Melzer in the finals of Memphis 2011 and 2012 respectively. Likely Quarterfinal opponent for Milos is his finals opponent last week in San Jose, Tommy Haas. His Semi-final opponent would likely be John Isner (can't wait for that, rematch of that Toronto match last year), and in the finals he would likely face Cilic, Nishikori, Querrey, or maybe Dolgopolov.<\/p>\n I'm hoping we get to see Dolgo and Isner matches, also, I can imagine Tommy Haas would like another crack at him, so all 3 of these would surely be great matches to watch!

\nMilos will play his first match, versus 20-year-old Jack Sock, late on Wednesday, Feb 20th. He is up following the Bryan Bros in the 7pm session. (This session starts at 8pm Eastern Time, so Milos will probably start around 9:30pm ET<\/em>)<\/b><\/p>\n
