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.

Hey Rog, It's me, I've been kite surfing at Laguna Beach. You'd love it. Soaring over the blue Pacific. it's indescribable. Gasquet got his brain scorched. Nice job. Look Roegi, it just is not the same without you at #1, so quite muddling around and GET'er DONE (as we say in Tennessee). I was able to get a signed tennis shirt. It's framed in glass and hanging in my library. Gotta go. Stay tough and get to OZ!
