Jack Sock fabricated first light for the United States of America at the Stockholm Open, as he dispatched off Bernard Tomic 6-4, 6-2 in the first-round battle, which lasted for just 59 minutes. Tomic, 20, struggled with his serve in the first set, and kept on giving break point opportunities to his opponent, as a result of which the American sneaked a 6-4 win in the first set.

In the second set, Tomic, ranked 45 places over his American counterpart in the rankings, was expected to fight back through an equalizer. However, Sock was in no mood to leak away the match, as he administered a dazzling performance to bag the second set 6-2, and eventually sealed his place in the second round of the ATP 250 tournament.

Sock will next face a sturdy assignment, as he is slated to meet top-seed David Ferrer, for a place in the quarterfinals.
