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>

Dear Rogerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr,

Strategy is all that you need, player to player!!! One step at a time, one game at a time, one match at a time, one perfect shot at the right time, and you stay number one for a long time!!!

Dear Rogerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr,

Great match, perfect strategy to stop Verdasco's speedy shots. Idea was perfect!!! Now, you got to find a way to Block the Djoker & Murray, rest all of them would be easier, but you better concentrate on 100% serve as it is your reliable weapon!!! Don't hit too hard shots & please try to reduce your unforced errors!!!
