VALENCIA, Spain (AP) - Alberto Martin of Spain halted Gustavo Kuerten's comeback from a hip injury with a 6-2, 6-0 second-round win at the Valencia Open on Thursday.
Kuerten, who was out of action since surgery in September, made a promising return to the ATP Tour with a first-round win over fourth-seeded Olivier Rochus of Belgium. But his run ended quickly against Martin.
In other matches at the clay-court tournament, Rafael Nadal advanced to the quarterfinals with a 6-1, 6-4 victory over fellow Spaniard Guillermo Garcia-Lopez.
