Roger walks into last eight

03.09.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger advanced into his 34th consecutive Grand Slam quarter-final today as Mardy Fish had to withdraw from their US Open match due to health issues. Fish has been experiencing heart-problems and had already taken a two-month break from the Tour beginning of this year. 

The walkover stretched Roger's record for quarter-final Grand Slam appearances in the Open era to 38, three short of the record 41 by Jimmy Connors.

Roger will play his quarter-final against Tomas Berdych on Wednesday. Our champion has won 11 of their 15 encounters so far.

I hope Mardy's problems are not serious and that he is back on court soon. And I hope that this doesn't throw you off your stride. Best of luck against Berdych!

Please be in the fighting mode in your mind, since you are ot going to play Fish. I wish him an easement of his heart problems. I took a look at the draw, and it is not uninteresting. (It is my feeling that the other Andy, R, will go for broke, since he is not loosing anything. Not that he han't done that before.) Don't let your pacing be thrown off, Roger, and don't let anyone get on your bandwagon! You are IT, then there are wannabes. When you fully believe, you fly, are unbeatable.
