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.

Yes, very well played, and also you appreciated Teixeira for his effort. He kept trying, whiich I admire. You were in your high-flying mode, and it was wonderful to see. Against Tipsarevic, keep a sharp eye on him, as he is a wily one, and not above using gamesmanship. Frankly I dislike his play and behaviour from way back. Don't give him any chances, please. Godspeed, and good luck! Bravo!
well-played

Congratulations, Roger. It sounds like you had a very good play. I wish they had shown us your match. All the best with the next match against Tispsarevic. I know he can be bothersome, but you know how to handle the challenge.
