A perfect performance

23.06.2011 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger did not have to work too hard today, defeating Adrian Mannarino 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 in 88 minutes to move on to round three.

"I've played on centre court for 10 straight years and it was really enjoyable, as usual, to be back there. I thought conditions were fantastic from start to finish. It was really perfect," Roger said. "It took me some time to get used to him, but I thought I played really, really well."

Roger's serve worked very well again today. He secured a break upon the first opportunity given in all three sets with Mannarino needing quite some time to score his first points on Roger's serve. All in all, it was an excellent display by our champ today under the roof in Wimbledon.

Roger will now meet 2002 Wimbledon finalist David Nalbandian on Saturday.

Hello Roger
How I wish that I had been sitting courtside Centre court on Thursday--what a feast of tennis from 3 great matches,the overwhelming best tennis coming from the racquet of Roger Federer. You were not imperious but super imperious --congratulations on your win and thank you.
Your serve variation & placement is beyond belief--no patterns--one just waits for a surprise.
Your touch,power,repertoire of shots just everything about your tennis fills us with unforgettable memories forever.

C'mon Roger, you can do this. You have more matches to play after this one. He's only one more hurdle to leap on the way to the top. I'll be watching and cheering you on. Keep playing well and aggressive and you'll win easily. All the very best.
