Roger rushes into the |next round

25.02.2013 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Our Champ gave us some worrying times during his first appearance at the Dubai Duty Free Championships today. He lost the first set 5-7 to the Tunisian Malek Jaziri but then went on to win 6-0 and 6-2 in 90 minutes. Roger started really well with his first serves causing Malek a lot of trouble and yet Malek held on to break our Champ for the first set. From then on it was all Roger and he finished the match in fine style with a typical forehand down the line winning 12 of the last 14 games. Again, he is the defending champion at this tournament after defeating Andy Murray last year.

Hello Roger,

Such a differencem between watching you live sitting courtside in Rotterdam and watching you on TV through a distant camera in Dubai! A strange first set but a very quick and clear response in the 2nd and the 3rd. Allways a bit tricky, playing a 1st round against an unknown opponnent in windy conditions at night, but you got through and that is what matters. You look very well and I like it that you chose to wear the AO outfit again. All the best against Granollers.
