Roger wins thriller

02.04.2009 | Tennis

Roger continued his domination of Andy Roddick, this time winning a tough match, topping the former world No. 1 American, 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 Wednesday to move into the semifinals at the Sony Ericsson Open.

 

13-time major titlist Roger was locked in a battle with Roddick for more than two hours, but despite 37 unforced errors, 20 more than his opponent, the Swiss pulled through. Roger had 42 winners, compared to 15 for Roddick.

 

"Here I had to adjust for a little bit to the night conditions, but I thought it was much easier than in Indian Wells where the ball is flying much more during the day, and during night it's way different."

 

Roger will next meet Serbian Novak Djokovic in the semifinals."I have a good record (7-2) against Novak, so I hope I can play well against him again," said our star.

Mitz ,

If Roger is doing the "BEST HE CAN RIGHT NOW" by commiting over 40 unforced errors per match and 53% serve percentage , then you're clearly been misleaded.

You're wrong , Roger is not doing his best , if he was practicing as hard as the other

remember that federer once said that
he has created a ""monster" by winning so much and maybe he is busy now to kill it

Have you guys ever watched any of Roger's matches "live" and met him in person recently? For the last 6 months, I was in Shanghai for the MC, in Macau for the exho, in Melbourn for the AO. I had the chance to encounter Roger closely in

THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS FIXING ROGER'S DOWNFALL IS THAT HE ADMITS HE HAS A PROBLEM , INSTEAD OF MAKING EXCUSES AND POLISHING THINGS UP IN FRONT OF THE MEDIA.

WHY SAY I STRUGGLED WITH THE WIND ?

WHY CAN'T ROGER SAY THAT HE PLAYED SOME OF THE MOST EMBA

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON'T LISTEN TO ADVICE ON GETTING A BIGGER RACKET TO REDUCE YOUR ERRORS , YOU HAD TO SMASH IT !!!!!!!

WELL , AFTER SMASHING IT , WILL YOU GET A NEW ONE ?

YOU CAN'T CONCENTRATE YOUR EYE ON THE BALL WHEN IT HITS THE RACKET
