Roger out in Miami

04.04.2008 | Tennis

Roger lost his quarter-final against American Andy Roddick 6-7, 6-4, 3-6 at the Miami Open.

 

It is the only the second defeat for our star in 17 career meetings against Roddick."I always said it's tough to play against Andy, you know, with that serve," said Roger, who was beaten with 17 aces. "He's always going to have a chance. That's why I'm quite amazed about my record against him."

 

"I think I did well to hang in there," Roger further commented. "Maybe this is one of the matches I should have won against him because he's had some other ones where I think he was supposed to win. This time around it went his way."

 

Roger had won the last 11 encounters with Andy Roddick, the head-to-head is now at 15-2. Roger will be heading back to Europe these days and is looking forward to the Estoril Open in Portugal and the start of the clay season.

Roger is coming to his top physical form. Mono is hard to defeat. Today's tennis is PHYSICAL.... it's made for great athletes. Time of the wood raquets is over, and those new raquets are incredible weapons that allow to reach super speeds and spin.. the

Good to see that you are still No 6 in the ATP 2008 race despite not feeling or playing on peak form. Fascinating to observe that all the players who have beaten you during the last few months have in turn been beaten since by players known and unknown -

All I can say is that I am happy there was no TV coverage on these matches in the past couple of months. Very sad to see that you are losing many matches and still without a title this year. Knowing that Clay is not the best for you, I still ho
