Top-ranked Roger Federer was knocked out of the Rogers Cup with
a 2-6, 7-5, 6-4 loss to France's Gilles Simon in a second-round
match Wednesday night.
Federer, who won the tournament in 2004 and '06, was playing
his first match since losing the Wimbeldon final in five sets to
Spain's Rafael Nadal.
Federer finished second here last year to Serbia's Novak
Djokovic.
The 23-year-old Simon is ranked No. 22 in the world.
