Roger advances in three sets

01.09.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 1

<tt class="letterText"><tt>Roger won his third-round match at the US Open against Fernando Verdasco in a straight-sets win 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 today.

Spain's Verdasco, the second best left hander after Nadal, did not have a real chance against our champ in their fifth encounter. Roger's service was extremely reliable: he scored six aces and boasted a first-serve percentage of 67 percent throughout the etire match. Verdasco, in contrast, struggled with his accuracy and made 35 unforced errors. Roger sealed the match after 122 minutes with an excellent high backhand volley.

Roger will face the winner of Saturday evening's match between Mardy Fish and Gilles Simon in his next match on Monday.</tt></tt>

No Roger tonight! What will I do?! A good opportunity Roger, to practise, relax and recoup some energy. I hope Fish is ok, a sad end of the Open for him in front of his own crowd. Have a good day Rogi, make the most of it, and then onto the next!
