But judging by the numbers, Raonic was fairly dominant on his serve and was able to work his way into several of his opponent's service games. While Milos won a healthy majority of his first serve points (100% for the first set), getting those serves in was a bit of an issue. The ace count for the match was also a bit low, with 6 of the total 10 coming in the first set.<\/p>\n<p>Those numbers will have to come up because the draw for Milos is about to get tough in a hurry. Raonic is set to play Mardy Fish (USA) who, by virtue of being the No.13 seed, has received a bye to the second round.<\/p>\n<p>In other Canadian tennis news, Ekaterina Makarova (RUS) defeated Rebecca Marino in the first round of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bnpparibasopen.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">BNP Paribas Open<\/a>, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.<\/p>\n<p>-multi<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Milos Raonic defeated Marsel Ilhan (TUR) in straight sets, 6-2, 7-6(4).
