Roger starts successfully
14.01.2009 | Tennis
Roger has started his preparation for the Australian Open well. He defeated Spaniard Carlos Moya in the AAMI Classic at Kooyong with ease 6-2, 6-3.
The match lasted just 57 minutes with Roger bouncing back from defeats to Andy Murray in Abu Dhabi and in Doha."I was a little rusty in the beginning, missed quite a few forehands, but I thought it was a good match overall," he said. "There were a few gusts of wind, which makes it not easy to play, but I felt like I was playing okay today."
Roger's next opponent will be Spanish Davis Cup hero Fernando Verdasco, who had little trouble defeating rising Croatian star Marin Cilic 6-2 7-5. Roger will be looking to add to his tally of 13 Grand Slam victories at Melbourne Park next week.
Congratulations to your both wins against Spanish men Moya and Verdasco.
Keep up the good work!
Stay happy and healthy.
God bless!
I love you.
Verd played better than Fed for sure.

You got to experiment and still came out on top as you generally do! Fernando kicked it up several notches-- such a higher level match than the others at Kooyong. Let's hope you're fine-tuning your game for next week. All the best, champ!
"peRFect!" finish with the ace. I'm hoping for an all Swiss final.
GO!
Good luck for the next match on Friday.
