Last eight in Paris

10.11.2011 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger secured his spot in the quarter-finals of the BNP Parisbas Masters thanks to an easy 6-2, 6-4 win over Richard Gasquet today.

"I think I played really well," Roger said. "I had good timing from the baseline. A little bit of a scare in the second set but that was because of some incredible shot-making by Gasquet."

Roger came out firing and broke the Frenchman in the opening game, dropping just two points in four service games in set number one. Roger captured another break early in the second set, but Gasquet suddenly caught fire and fought back with a re-break. But our champ secured one more break at 3-3 and wrapped up everyhting thanks to solid service games.

Roger will now face Argentina's Juan Monaco (ATP 34) in the last eight at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy on Friday.

congraltulations, Your mind thinks in Berdy Match please stay relax and just avoid midcourt high return
try flat return
move him around the court
use the depth and behind the net
finally use slice
good luck for 801 and 802 win in which I am sure you will do it

Dear Roger
Congratulations! It`s your 800th win! I didn`t watch the match, only saw livescores in two last games. Can`t comment ones `momentum`, but can say: you did it and it`s important, the win matters only! Your opponent tomorrow will fiercely serve, as he always does playing you! Stop him, pleaase.
Wish you all the best and good luck tomorrow!
Go, Roger, gooooooooooo!
Love, Mimi
