Roger moves on

31.03.2008 | Tennis

Roger needed just 47 minutes to reach the fourth round of the Miami Masters on Monday as Swede Robin Soderling retired with illness. Our champion advanced 6-4, 3-0. Roger is now 5-0 lifetime against Soderling.

"I think it was good for me to go out there and play today," Roger told reporters. "Apparently it was a fever. There was no point in his continuing and risking his health,"

"I hope I can make it step by step and once you make it to the quarter-finals or semi-finals you start thinking about winning the title."

Roger's fourth-round opponent will be Argentine José Acasuso, a 6-4, 6-4 winner against Israeli Dudi Sela.

Excellent match against Acasuso especially the second set. Your wer sublime in the 2nd game when you broke Acasuso. I can see you are building up to a big final crescendo. The old Roger is slowley coming back. Roddick next! We know what you are THE Roddi
