Rusedski fails to make his mark

Greg Rusedski bowed out of the adidas International in Sydney today, losing in three sets to Australian Mark Philippoussis.

The British number two bounced back from a set down to force the decider, breaking the Wimbledon finalist twice, but Philippoussis held his nerve at the death to secure a quarter-final place with a 6-3 1-6 6-4 win.
