A solid victory in the doubles
13.08.2008 | Tennis
Roger only had a few hours break after his victory in the singles competition before getting back on court for the doubles. Playing a most solid match, Roger and Stan qualified for the quarterfinal of the doubles competition with a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Dmitry Tursunov and Mikhail Youzhny.
The Swiss duo played a very good match and was able to improve the level of play throughout the game. They will take on Mahesh Bhupathi/Leander Paes of India in the next round – a rather difficult task. Roger had lost to them at the Athens Olympics four years ago together with Yves Allegro.

REEEETUUUUURNNNNNNNNS !!!!!!!!!!!!!
THEY WON HIM THE MATCH BECAUSE THEY GAVE HIM THE BREAK , ANOTHER ELEMENT THAT HAS TO BE STRONG AS THE REST OF ROGER'S ARSENAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1- Precise forehand cross court
2- "Unreal" backhand passing shot ( you know what I mean, the one that curls outside the line during flight then goes back in again )
3- Very high service percentage (85 and above)
4- Very low unforced
I'm very sorry to see you lost today.
In my heart you're a great player forever.So plsase believe yourself and never give up.
I'm expecting you win the next match and more matches!!!

Couldn't agree with you more on the equipment comment. Secondly, with this kind of terrible downhill slide, the mental injury is pretty substantial. Roger will definitely need someone to bounce things off to regain his "balance". Con
So sorry that Roger is out of the Singles tournament. It's not only Roger who has to regroup; we all need to regroup. Take deep breaths, go to your fridge and treat yourself to something... chocolates, ice cream, whatever you h
