Roger vs. Roddick 2012

09.09.2011 | Tennis, Starseite 2

Roger will be squaring off in an exhibition match against Andy Roddick at Madison Square Garden on March 5th, 2012. The two will be facing against each other in a match over three sets, which has been part of the annual BNP Paribas Showdown exhibition.

Both players have clashed 25 times in past with Roger leading the contest 22-3 against the American former No.1. They have battled four times in grand slam finals, three in Wimbledon and one at the US Open, with our 16 times champ winning all four encounters. The best grand slam final encounter between the two goes back to Wimbledon 2009, where Roger defeated Andy in a thrilling tie set victory 5-7, 7-6(6), 7-6(5), 3-6 and 16-14.

Earlier in the evening of March 5th the crowd will be able to enjoy an exhibition-match between Maria Sharapova and Caroline Wozniacki.

Tickets will be on sale from October 3rd 10:00 am. See www.thegarden.com for more information.

sunstorm.....I don't think Roger plays just for money. He loves tennis and he loves the attention Americans give him. NYC loves him. Besides, exhibitions are fun, like practicing; not brutal, like the tour competition. Roger is very much in demand. He may as well pick up the easy money while he can. Bet Novac and Rafa would jump at the chance to play at MSG. Also, because of Roger's status in the tennis world, there are many social and business activities that he is expected to attend worldwide.

This will be the best exhibition match. I am so excited. Your rivalry with Andy Roddick is the best rivalry in my opinion.

I am certain that you will be number one where you belong by the end of next season if you can keep your level of 2011 American Open. You are the greatest ever.
