Roger breaks Connors' record
Roger beat Romania's Adrian Ungur 6-3, 6-2, 6-7(6), 6-3, today to book his spot in the third round at Roland Garros and also pass Jimmy Connors' record of 233 wins at majors!
"I expect myself to win and I usually manage to do it. It's not like that at the start of your career when you think you are good enough but you are not that good yet," Roger said after the match.
Roger was clearly in command in the first two sets, making a speedy way to victory today. But as the third set went into the tie-break Ungur first saved two match points to then come alive and take the match into a fourth set. But Roger soon managed his first break and left the Romanian no more room to catch up, wrapping everything up nicely after 2 hours 27 minutes.
Roger will face either Slovakia's Martin Klizan (ATP 70) or Nicolas Mahut (ATP 89) of France for a place in the last 16.
AND ANOTHER RECORD ! ANOTHER STEP TOMORROW !
ALL THE BEST CHAMP !
Good luck for the next match!

Congratulations on your win and the new record!! You are a real GOAT! Hope you stay healthy and fit enough for your next opponent, the Frenchman Mahut! Ungur played very well and I think it was good for you! And for him, as well.
