Roger in third in Toronto

11.08.2006 | Tennis

Roger advanced to the third round in Toronto with a 6-3, 5-7, 6-0 win over Dmitry Tursunov of Russia. He will now face Xavier Malisse of Belgium, who defeated Thomas Johansson of Sweden 7-6 (7), 6-3.

 

Roger rolled his right ankle in a hard fall against Tursunov but said he was uninjured. "It was definitely a tough match against a guy who has become confident," Roger said. "I was happy the way I closed out the third set because it was really getting tough in the second."

 

Roger has not met Xavier Malisse for four years. Before that period they played each other a total of seven times, Roger winning six of the matches. Malisse has reached two tournament finals this year (Adelaide and Delray Beach) and qualified for the semi-finals in Indianapolis.

Roger es increible lo que demostras partido a partido, lo grande que seras que hasta jugando mal podes alzar los brazos, sin discutir, ni protestar, ni frustrarte, aceptando la realidad y enfrentandola, esa es la diferencia entre un campeon y otro jugador

Good to see you get through the match with Malisse. I have felt that you haven't looked in full health during this tournament. I hope that's not the case.
Good luck in the semis.
