Roger out in Montreal

15.08.2009 | Tennis

Roger lost his match against Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the quarterfinals of the ATP Montreal Masters.

The seventh-seeded Tsonga beat our champ in the tiebreaker for a 7-6 (5), 1-6, 7-6 (3) victory.

Roger had trouble to keep up with Tsonga in the first set and lost the tiebreak. Our champ won the second set clearly.

Roger led the third set 5-1 until Tsonga broke his serve twice. Tsonga took the lead using two aces.

Roger double-faulted on matchpoint and lost his first match after a 22-match winning streak.

Yes Federer blew that match on Friday, maybe even tanked it. He lost a very close first set tiebreak, then started returning better and dominated the #7 seed Tsonga 6-1, 5-1 in 2 straight sets, then fell asleep just before the 6th game won and match won.

Roger has to play Acasuso first in Cinncinnati and I remember he had a lot of trouble to beat him last time in RG? I think it was there. I think it is the same guy. No one could believe that Acasuso was so good against Roger.
