Roger defeated in semis

13.11.2010 | Tennis, Starseite 2

Roger will still have to wait to play his first Paris Masters final. He had to accept a 6-7(7), 7-6(1), 6-7(4) defeat against France's Gaël Monfils in the semi-final in Paris today.

Our champ fought out an enthralling contest with Monfils. The match was as tight as can be, requiring three tie-breaks to settle matters. Both players showed great tennis and made no presents. It was until the end of the second set when, needing to level things to stay in the match, Roger raised his game to snatch the tie-break and take the match into a third set. Roger then raced to a 4-1 lead in the deciding set and looked to be on course for a spot in the final. But his French opponent fought hard, battling his way back into the contest and finally even win the match in the last tie-break. Roger unfortunately could not make use of his 5 break-points.

you should have won, I have to accept that you are defeated, maybe you took him too easy, you are such a great player, everybody in the tour wants to defeat you. You know what to do, I am looking forward the London final, good luck.

khunyai,

here's the gist: "because they always take off the points won at the previous year's year end final before the tournament starts, instead of at the end as is usual with all other tournaments. Roger got 400 points last year, I believe. They've been taken off already, his points from Paris (350) have been added on, so he has a net loss of 50 points this week."

soOoOo, he actually lost only 50 pts. while someone like JOKER lost a whopping 910 pts while unable to defend his title!
