Swiss Indoors: the draw

29.10.2011 | Tennis, Starseite 1

The draw for the Swiss Indoors in Basel, Roger's home town, took place yesterday.

Our champ will play Potito Starace (ATP 50) in the first round on Monday. Roger has won all five matches against the Italian, the last one going back to the Davis Cup encounter in 2009. In the second round Roger will face the winner of the match between Thomaz Bellucci and Jarkko Nieminen. Our champ hasn't lost any of the 11 matches against Nieminen. He has never played Bellucci so far.

In the quarter-final Andy Roddick or Radek Stepanek could wait for Roger, before a possible duel with Andy Murray in the semis. In the end, a final against world number one Novak Djokovic is possible - which would certainly be an exciting event for Roger's home crowd.

Good luck Roger! I am looking forward to seeing you tonight, happy, relaxed and very fit! I know the first match is always difficult, but as always I expect to see you serving well and winning. At home you should be picking up the cup for the 5th time. Good luck, have fun and keep focused, above all look after your self!
