After dropping their first set against the Swiss doubles team of Roger Federer – the world’s number one player – and Stanislas Wawrinka, Jonathan Erlich and Andy Ram of Israel advanced out of the second round of Olympic play on Tuesday.

The Israeli team will face Robert and Michael Bryan of the United States in the next round of Olympic play.
