Madrid: the draw

02.05.2011 | Tennis

This week, Roger is playing the 1000-Masters in Madrid. He is in the same half of the draw as Rafael Nadal, winner of his last 34 matches on clay.

Roger, the number 3 seed, could meet Robin Söderling (ATP 5) in a possible quarter-final. Both players were the last to beat Rafael Nadal on clay - Söderling at Roland Garros in 2009 and our champ in Madrid two years ago.

As the winner of the tournament in 2006 and 2009, Roger has a bye into the second round, where he will either face Milos Raonic (ATP 27) or Feliciano Lopez (ATP 37). In the third round a duel with Spain's Fernando Verdasco (ATP 15) could be possible.

Roger: Even though we all were close to a heart atack, i am extremely happy about your victory. Your resiliency is back, that is one of the reasons behind your 16 grand slams. Today, my daughter, who is less than two years, watched your tennis for two minutes in ecstatic fashion. Then she went to do her business. Anyways, her attention span is not that great(due to her age) and she paid complete attention to your fantastic tennis. Great day to be your fan, i´ll be rooting for you forever.

Roger, very happy to see you coming from behind in the 3rd tie break. We never worried in the past when you were behind. Sure this match will give you and us confidence that you still have the magic to turn things around in future. Expect to see your strong serve continue and win more net points. See you today again. Best wishes

Hi Roger,
What a relieve after the game? I was at work looking at the Tennis live score which is not allowed to the website, but I was able to sneak to the Tennis live every 16 minutes to follow up with the score. My heart beat jumped so fast. it's point by point. I'm so happy that You are back. You played like a Champ again. Physically and MENTALLY in tact. It was a test to you because all the top players are on a row. Good Luck and bring the trophy home.
