73rd career title!

18.03.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 3

Roger captured a record fourth title in Indian Wells today, beating John Isner 7-6(7) 6-3.

There was not much between the players in the start and it proved a tough battle with no breaks, taking the opening set it into a tie break. Roger spurned two opportunities to take the set in the breaker before finally doing so at the third attempt with a clinical serve and volley.
In the seventh game of the second set, Roger converted the first of two break points to take a deserved lead. And Roger continued in style to break Isner in his next service game to seal the victory and once again make history.

Roger has now won 39 of his last 41 matches, has equalled Rafael Nadal's record of 19 Masters 1000-titles and only lies four victories behing John McEnroe (third in the ranking) with a total of 73 career titles.

Congratulations on being #1 in the Tennis Channel countdown of the top 100 tennis stars, men and women! I feel so honored to have watched you since you were 19 and witnessed so much incredible tennis. It was fun to watch you play Ryan Harrison, also 19, and he says he patterned his game after yours. We have to start watching the youngsters now, but there will never be another Roger! You are the most exquisitely graceful player I've ever seen, and, at 73, I've seen most of them. Thank you, Roger!
