      Nice, France (SportsNetwork. Josh Jones Jersey .com) - Top seeds John Isner of the United States and Latvias Ernests Gulbis were among Wednesdays second-round winners at the Nice Open, a final clay court French Open tune-up. Isner popped eight aces in easing past qualifier, fellow American and good friend Jack Sock, 6-4, 6-3, in 77 minutes, while the Gulbis fought back to best Slovak and recent Munich titlist Martin Klizan, 6-7 (4-7), 6-4, 6-1. Next up for Isner will be Argentine Federico Delbonis, while Gulbis quarterfinal opponent will be fifth-seeded Russian Dmitry Tursunov. The seventh-seeded Delbonis handled French wild card Paul-Henri Mathieu, 6-2, 6-4, and Tursunov dismissed Dutchman Robin Haase, 6-3, 6-4. Also Wednesday, fourth-seeded Frenchman Gilles Simon gutted out a three-set win over Austrias Dominic Thiem, 6-3, 4-6, 6-2. Simon will next meet Argentine Carlos Berlocq, who upset sixth-seeded Frenchman Nicolas Mahut, 6-2, 6-3. Argentine qualifier Leonardo Mayer drove out eighth-seeded Frenchman Edouard Roger-Vasselin, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5, and will next face reigning Nice champion Albert Montanes. The Spaniard rallied for a 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 win over American lucky loser Sam Querrey, who replaced an injured Frenchman Gael Monfils in the draw. Monfils was the third seed and had a bye into the second round. His scheduled meeting with Montanes would have been a rematch of last years Nice final, which was won by the Spaniard. Muhammad Wilkerson Jersey . Cesar said the difficulties he went through after the 2010 World Cup helped him become "a better professional" and made him "more focused" on his career. He admitted that he took things for granted before the World Cup in South Africa, when he arrived considered the worlds top goalkeeper. Raven Greene Jersey . Hes even holding a bat on one of his 2014 baseball cards. So far, hes playing like his picture.Wales boss Chris Coleman insists there is much optimism around the squad ahead of Euro 2016 despite a poor run of results. Colemans under-strength side lost 1-0 to fellow finalists Ukraine in Kiev on Monday night, having been held 1-1 at home to Northern Ireland last Thursday.Wales have only won once in six games, but Coleman does not believe momentum is an issue ahead of his countrys first major tournament experience in 58 years. Results will be what they are going to be, but I think if were going into a tournament - our first tournament since 1958 - and were worried about that, were looking at it all wrong, said Coleman.Were going into it full of positivity and full of confidence because the performances have been good. I think youve got to look at the reality.I only ever have a problem with my team if they dont put out and they dont give 100 per cent when they put the Welsh jersey on.But I cant complain about my players the way they have played. I think in the last six games youve got to understand who weve played against. Ben Davies of Wales is challenged by Denys Garmash of Ukraine Bosnias never going to be easy and the home game against Israel, where we absolutely hammered them but couldnt score, was an exceellent performance. Jamaal Williams Jersey. ometimes you can look at stats and get carried away with them.While Wales lost to a spectacular goal from Andrij Yarmolenko in Kiev, there were positives for Coleman to take from the game.The visitors enjoyed 54 per cent possession, and although they struggled to create genuine scoring chances, the form of Joe Allen was pleasing for the manager.The Liverpool midfielder has struggled for game time at Anfield this season, but his ability to break up Ukraine attacks and his distribution led to Wales moving forward swiftly.Hes a great player and I dont use that term loosely, said Coleman. Simon Church earned Wales a 1-1 draw with Northern Ireland from the spot You almost want a Joe Allen in front of the back four starting play and a Joe Allen just in behind the striker making the last pass, because hes capable of both.Its unfortunate that hes not playing enough for Liverpool for his own liking, but thats up to Liverpool.But the job he does for us, hes irreplaceable.
