Milos Raonic beat No. 2 seed Fernando Verdasco 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (5) on Wednesday night in the first round of the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships, his second victory over Verdasco in four days.
Raonic, a 20-year-old Canadian and the fastest rising young star on the ATP Tour, beat Verdasco on Sunday in the final of the SAP Open in San Jose for his first career title.
