Roger to meet Ljubicic in Miami final

01.04.2006 | Tennis

Roger needed only 59 minutes Friday night to reach the Nasdaq-100 Open final, beating David Ferrer, 6-1, 6-4. The defending champion, fell behind by 3-0 in the second set, but rallied to improve his record this year to 27-1.

 

"I played well, in the first set I didn't give him any chances," Roger said. "The second set was tighter, but his game suits me on hardcourt. I'm playing so well that it was tough for him from the start."

 

His opponent Sunday will be the sixth-seeded Ivan Ljubicic, who advanced to his first final in the United States by beating No. 3 David Nalbandian, 6-1, 6-2.

 

Roger has won his past six meetings against Ljubicic. Over all, he leads, 9-3.

Actually marac, Ljujo is number 6 and Federer's number 1. Don't get me wrong, i love Ljubicic too, but Federer's beat him 7 times in a row now. Let's be realistic brah ...

Congrats Roger

It was a very tough match. But, you did it again. Now, get ready for the clay court season. We are looking forward to your Grand Slam with French Open.

Congratulations on keeping your cool and putting up a masterful display again today in Miami. Ljubicic wasn't a walkover. You're the very best Roger. I hope you're start on clay goes to your plan. Best wishes
