Roger starts well
Roger opened his bid for a third title in Miami in successful manner, breezing past Ecuador's Nicolas Lapentti 6-3, 6-3 in his first match.
"I served well and made a good start on all my service games. I knew I would have chances on his serve and I took them. It's a pleasing performance and a good start."
Roger struggled with his forehand in the beginning, but fought to earn his first break point to advance to 5-3 in the opening set. Both players competed well in the second set, neither able to reach break point until 3-3. Roger struck first, taking a 4-3 lead as Lapentti gave away a backhand error. Roger then went on to complete the match with no trouble as he collected two match points at 5-3. A well-struck, cross-court backhand sealed the win for our champ in 66 minutes.
Roger will meet France's Florent Serra (ATP 61) in the third round of play. The two have never met before on the Tour.
It wasn't you're perfect performance we know but the important thing is to move on and collect the vectories one by one all the way to the championship title...
nice outfit.... some thing new .... keep going...

I loved it, from the start to the last minute of it. Most of the time you did not face any major trouble from your opponent. You looked relaxed but aware of any opportunity to strike when the time was right.
Great job!
Keep it up, my CHAM
