Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France beat an error-prone Feliciano Lopez 7-6 (4), 6-3 Monday in the opening round of the Shanghai Masters for his first win since returning from a three-month injury layoff. Both players held serve throughout the first set before Tsonga took control of the tiebreaker with two aces and a backhand passing shot. He clinched the set with a forehand winner that skidded off the line. The 12th-seeded Tsonga earned the only break of the match in the second set and sealed the win when the Spaniard hit a backhand wide. Tsonga lost in the first round of the Tokyo Open last week, his first tournament since injuring his knee in a quarterfinal loss to Andy Murray at Wimbledon. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/tennis/news/story?id=5673015
