Roger reaches quarters
30.03.2011 | Starseite 1, Tennis
Roger easily defeated Olivier Rochus in straight sets 6-3, 6-1 to reach the quarter-finals of the Miami Masters.
An almost never-ending match between Maria Sharapowa and Alexandra Dulgheru pushed the start of Roger's match into early Wednesday morning. Our champ finally wrapped up his victory at 1:29 a.m. as it took him just 52 minutes to win this match thanks to scoring 88% of the points on his first serve. He already secured his first break after 11 minutes and bagged the first set after 26 minutes. In the end, he had 32 winners, losing only five points on his own serve.
Roger's opponent in Thursday's quarter-final will be France's Gilles Simon.

You played simply perfect today, giving no chances to Rochus to react. Your serve was inspired and everything was marvellous, despite it was too late. Hope it didn¡t change things haha :D
Best wishes today against Simon. It's going to be a tough match for sure, as they always are when you play with him. However, if you keep playing as well as you've done these days, I'm sure you won't have any troubles.
Go on and enjoy on court. Looking forward you to meet Rafa ag
XoXo

With Simon, do the same. Even up your head-to-head! Blast him off the court!
