The perfect statistic

16.11.2006 | Tennis

Roger won his eighth straight match over Ivan Ljubicic 7-6 (7-2), 6-4 and has moved to 11-3 over the Croatian. He finished the group stage with a perfect 3-0 record, completing his fifth edition of round-robin play at a season wrapup event without a loss, improving his record in group competition to 15-0.

 

"I only knew five minutes before the match that I had qualified," said Roger. "Maybe that's why I got broken in the first game. It took some time to realise that I was out there again playing.

 

"But I really wanted to keep my fantastic streak alive. I'm happy I came through. It gives me confidence for the semis."

 

Roger and David Nalbandian will meet the first two players of the other group. James Blake has already booked his ticket with two victories; Rafael Nadal und Nikolaj Dawydenko are still fighting for their place.

Congrats Roger, now you play Nadal and he actually wrote on the camera your name and crossed it out, who do he thinks he is? Show him who is the best, and quiet his mouth. The best of luck and hope to see you clinch the title on Sunday.

Dearest Roger,

Here we go again. It's the 19 year old kid waiting for you in Shanghai. It is your duty to teach him a lesson. You are the ONLY one in the world who has the luxury to select shots in the timing of your choosing. Nadal has the will to dig

Dear Roger,

Nadal is playing with Davydenko, i don't know the results.

But i hope Nadal will be in the semi-final. So you have the OPPORTUNITY to know his game and mostly know how to WIN him on the red clay court.

Congratulations for your FASHION
