Roger through in three sets

19.01.2013 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger advanced to the fourth round of the Australian Open today with a 6-4, 7-6(5), 6-1 win over Australia's Bernard Tomic.

Roger managed to dominate the much-hyped clash over most parts, breaking Tomic in the first game of the match and ending it with a monster serve. It got a bit tight for Roger in the tie-break in the second set as his opponent came within two points of snatching the set, but our champ saw off the challenge and took the set by winning all of the following points in the tie-breaker from that moment on.

Roger will play Milos Raonic in the next round as he bids for an 18th grand slam title and fifth at Melbourne Park.

1) Great match. Brilliant play and you saw off Tomic convincingly after he got ahead of himself before the match.
2)Suisuifederer. I so agree. Gutted for Stan. Really gutted. Robots should be banned from playing tennis. And his horrible display at the end!
3) Boting you are so right. Has anyone analysed why?
4)Fancy free - I'm afraid Djok will be very heartened by this,he's come back from heavy matches and won again before and he'll be more up himself than ever.
