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.

Hey Champ, it's good that you got more time to rest and practice. Get ready for some fireworks from Berdych. He seems to be in good shape but so are you. So I expect a tough match but of course, you coming on top. Display some serving clinic on Wednesday.
