Through in straight sets
17.10.2008 | Tennis
Roger'sbid to win the Madrid Masters remains on course as he downed 16th seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France in straight sets to clinch a quarter-final spot.
It was the the first time Roger and Tsonga faced each other. "It's hard to face a player you've never met before, that's why I worked a little bit harder at the beginning," our champ said. "It was like playing a box fight, he always hit first."
Roger proved too good for his younger opponent, beating the Australian Open finalist 6-4 6-1 in just over an hour. Now, he will clash against Juan Martin del Potro; they met twice, and our 13-time Grand Slam champion won both without dropping a set.
Another great victory over the recent hard-court star today! Congrats Rog!
p.s. wish there was one channel showing the masters..
All the best,
I heard a commentator saying 'the greatest of all time, addressing Roger more than few times. I was not sure wh he was. Maybe youncan tell me who. I was at my office PC watching AMS live coverage.
I had all the faith you will win :)
You are my big hero!!
I admire you deeply :)
Good luck against del Potro!
You can do it! Lots of kisses

I couldn't watch the match, but I followed the Forum and understand you handled del Potro just beautifully. I'm so happy!
Tomorrow It's Murray again. I wish you the very best of luck!
Have a nice rest
