Roger moves on
17.08.2007 | Tennis
Roger booked his path to the quarter-finals with a 7-6(5), 7-5 win over Marcos Baghdatis (CYP).
While Thursday's 40-degree Celsius heat drained many players, Roger’s habit of training in Dubai left him all but immune to the sweltering Midwest. "The problem is more the humidity. The sweat is all over. The hand gets wet, and it's hard to hold the grip," he said. "Dubai was way hotter than this today, so this is actually pretty mild."
Of his opponent in the next round, Nicolas Almagro, he said: "It was dangerous playing him. He's got a wonderful kick serve, great motion and nice forehand. He's a danger player from the back. Massive power and he's a big guy.”
The match is scheduled to start around 2 p.m. on Center Court today.
Congrats on advancing in Cincy! Just heard that you beat Almagro too, so semi-final next against Hewitt who is always a tough opponent. So, bring your A-game...:)
Good luck tomorrow; it should be a fun and entertaining match: hope to see y
