Quarters in Rome

18.05.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger won his second round match against Juan Carlos Ferrero 6-2, 5-7, 6-1 today to reach the quarter-finals in Rome.

Roger managed his first break in the opening set in game number 6. After that, it was a one-sided show in favour of our champion. But after clearly taking the first set, Roger faced a more aggressive Ferrero in the second, as Roger lost a bit of his sharpness and committig a string of unforced errors in the midsection of the set. The two players held serve until the Spaniard finally broke to move 6-5 up and later take the set. Roger then flipped the swith for the decider, grabbing a break in the second game and another one in game number six to book his spot in the round of the last eight.

Roger will play Andrea Seppi in tomorrow's quarter final.

1-Wow! That was a serious display, great match, terrific win over a tough and high quality opponent! Beautiful clay court game. Amazing backhand, aces and service.

I'm so crazy about your service I would love to be able to do that; it must feel incredible to be capable of all that magic!

2-Roger if I may just dream a little I think that you are a good actor you have a massive potential, really! It's an instrument you can learn how to play I would very much like you to be an actor some day; another time I'll tell you why it is such a good idea.

I'm sure that when the director of the movie saw you he thought Oh what a beautiful man with that magnificent prescience and voice, etc, etc, here's my new leading man! You are a dream for any director.

3-Objectively speaking really and just talking about the physical aspect you're more handsome and have a far, far better body beautifully and naturally sculpted by tennis than any other actor out there with a body on steroids.

But in general whatever makes you happy, whatever you want, whatever you feel like to, in every aspect its fine.

Well done against Ferrero. Now it's the turn of Seppi to bow down in front of your punishing shotmaking. Good luck, Roger. Stay healthy. You look really great!
