Roger advances

25.05.2011 | Tennis, Starseite 2

Roger defeated Maxime Teixeira 6-3, 6-0, 6-2 in his second match at the French Open today.

 

"It's so difficult to come out and play on a big court when you are not used to it," said Roger of his 22-year-old opponent. "I'm playing here for the 12th year and I'm very experienced."


Our champion was broken once early in the first set but fought back and captured the set after 33 minutes. In the second set Roger found back to his usual strength - securing three breaks and taking the set 6-0. Roger left Teixeira without any chance in the final set and used his third match ball to win his second match in Roland Garros.


Roger will now face Janko Tipsarevic (ATP 29), our champ leads the head-to-head 3:0.

Hi Rogerrrrrrrrrrrrrr,

I've tried my best to tell you that :- 1) YOU BETTER STAY FOCUSED AND JUDGE THE MOVEMENT OF YOUR OPPONENTS SHOTS. 2) REDUCE YOUR FOOLISH UNFORCED ERRORS 3) STOP GETTING INVOLVED IN RALLIES BY PLAYING OPPONENT OFF-GUARD SHOTS 4) PLAY EFFECTIVE DROP SHOTS 5) KEEP YOUR MIND COOL 5) DON'T HURRY-W0RRY TO PLACE EASY SHOTS, USUALLY YOU HIT THEM OUT INSTEAD OF EASILY HITTING THEM IN 6) TRY AND CAREFULLY BOUNCE IN OPPONENT RETURN SHOTS ACROSS THE NET. 7) GET INTO ATTACKING MODE

I love when he plays that way. Beyond its superiority was overwhelming tennis, stay focused throughout the match
You did not make any concession and then there were no complications
This concentration will be key to the upcoming matches. Either way the tournament progresses you are more concentrated. I hope you will show us what you can do whatever you want, I know it must be hard to get motivated after winning everything, but I hope it
