Roger easily defeats Murray

23.11.2010 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger once again proved he has Andy Murray's number when it comes to the big matches with a crushing 6-4 6-2 victory over the Scotsman at the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals today.

Bidding for a record-equalling fifth title at the year-ending showpiece, Roger cruised to victory this afternoon in a packed O2 Arena with a minimum of fuss. Murray already had to save break points in the opening game but made it though. Roger kept digging and already broke to love on the Scot's second service game. Roger held the important lead and finally closed the first set after 36 minutes. The second set was even more a display of Roger's great form as he raced to a 4-0 lead. After some more spectacular points Roger enjoyed a deserved standing ovation from the London crowd.

Should Ferrer win at least one set against Söderling this evening, Roger has already booked his spot in the semi-finals.

WOW, WOW, and WOW AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!! I am drunk just drinking in the beauty of that match. the smoothness, the footwork, the movement, the shots, altogether spell the beauty of sport in the human body at its highest point. thank you for that performance. murray did not play well, maybe because you didn't let him. but you were magnifique. i even liked these announcers, arias and the other guy. good luck against Soderling. and thank you again.

Dearest & Greatest Champion Roger:
Beautiful match .. what can I say, you took my breath away. Andy needed a beat down, it's long overdue. His head has gotten too big with the "Head to Head" and it gave him ILLUSIONS OF GRANDEUR, you took care of that today. Beauty and PeRFection prevailed.. Thank you Champ, you drew Oooohs & Aaaaahs even from the Comms.

Till he next match
Keep well .. Love u
Grace.

Folks, this is hilarious:

The main headline of "The Sun", the British tabloid:

Tuesday

"Murray: I'm not afraid of you, Fed!"

Wednesday

"Andy's fed to the lion!"
