Top-seeded David Ferrer powered his way past Andreas Seppi 6-3, 7-5 to reach the second round of the Valencia Open on Wednesday.
The Spaniard's consistent first-serve accuracy and powerful forehand returns proved too strong for his Italian opponent.
Ferrer will play countryman Fernando Verdasco next.
Earlier, Pablo Andujar caused the first major upset of the tournament by defeating second-seeded Tomas Berdych.
Andujar, whose hometown is Valencia, downed the Czech player 6-3, 6-2 in 72 minutes, three days after Berdych had won the Stockholm Open, his 10th ATP title.
